that was the exact discussion on why Pitt and Rangers did nothing......no bats available

Pence and one more I'm forgetting were supposedly available and didnt move........meh

jason kubel's name came up late.....not bad

The biggest rumored names were Pence, Morneau, Carlos Ruiz, Michael Young...

stanton was rumored, but every rumor contained the epitaph that the Marlins weren't even listening to offers...

Uh, why not?

When he and I were talking about the Cards 2 minutes prior?

You see?

This is why you suck cock, and why nobody wants you here.

His point about the cards didn't indicate a concern they'd miss the playoffs...or fall to pieces..his point in that post about the Pirates made that exact point...

Not my fault you suck at english, as well as math.

There's a reason Hunter Pence is perpetual trade bait.

Michael Young said he would only go back to Texas...Apparently they really didn't want him.

Pence? Kubel?

The Pirates should get robbed for those guys? They went out and "got a bat" the last 2 years...Where did that get them?

At least those are actual names. This douche on the radio killing the Pirates today for not making a move mentioned exactly zero names.

The Reds need a bat (or 5) and Jockety said it best..."We didn't feel anybody out there being offered is better than the guy we have coming back" (Ludwick)

soon to be Yankee alert:

The Pirates have released Brandon Inge, according to Chris Cotillo of MLBDailyDish.com (on Twitter). MLBTR's Zach Links has confirmed the move.

Inge, 36, was designated for assignment by the Bucs on July 23 after hitting .181/.204/.238 in 110 plate appearances. The longtime Tiger has scarcely stayed north of the Mendoza Line over the past three seasons, hitting .204/.261/.321 in his time with Detroit, Oakland and Pittsburgh. However, his defense has remained strong, according to Ultimate Zone Rating. He's spent time at second base, third base and right field recently, and he even played an inning at shortstop for the Pirates this season.

the Pirates GM (Hendrixon or something) said he was willing to do something stupid but not willing to do something insane

not sure there's a difference

Garza would have been enough to put the Pirates over the top in the division. The second there was word the Cards were talking to Theo, they should have made their move and made the commitment.

That said, the Pirates are a stacked organization right now and they obviously have confidence in their system next season. Beating the Cards four straight has been a real bonus for them.

Rays right-hander Ramon Ramirez has been granted his release from Triple-A Durham, the team announced on Twitter. The 31-year-old veteran had signed a minor league deal with Tampa Bay back on July 1 after being designated for assignment by the Giants in mid-June.

Ramirez allowed seven earned runs in 5 2/3 innings with the Giants this year but excelled as a setup man from 2008-12, posting a 3.04 ERA with 7.5 K/9 and 4.0 BB/9 in 343 innings with the Royals, Red Sox, Giants and Mets. He's enjoyed a strong season in the minors in 2013, compiling a 3.31 ERA with 10.7 K/9 and 3.8 BB/9 in 35 1/3 innings between the Giants and Rays organizations.

Can see the Sox signing him back on an MiLB deal...guy was a pretty decent middle reliever here....

The rangers got ass raped by theo...for the pirates to consider trumping that offer for a 2 month rental? When he really wouldn't be considered much of an upgrade over the flotsam of #3's over there? Makes less than no sense....

The waivers trades are going to be more exciting than the trade dealine this season. Might have already said that but I believe it. Some big names will move.

He'd be their #2 and you know it. And they wouldn't have signed him if it were only going to be a rental. Garza keeps saying he wants to stay somewhere and I'd imagine Pittsburgh would be a great place to hang around for another 18 months or so.
