May 14, 2012
With Erik Bedard out until at least Wednesday with his back spasms, Brad Lincoln will get a spot start for the Pirates in Miami tonight. Lincoln's been pretty impressive in a handful of relief appearances this year; in 14 1/3 innings, he has 16 strikeouts and held the opposition to just nine hits, giving him a 0.62 ERA and a FIP of 2.91. Lincoln's struggled with missing bats...

Final: Pirates 3, Marlins 2
WP: Brad Lincoln (3-0, 1.33 ERA)
LP: Anibal Sanchez (2-1, 2.28 ERA)
SV: Joel Hanrahan (7, 3.55 ERA)
You can’t ask for any more out of a spot starter. Brad Lincoln, who has dominated in a long relief role, was able to carry over that success in his first start of the year. Over six innings, he gave up just two runs on four hits and one walk while striking...

It's always amazing to me how quickly an exciting ending wipes away everything frustrating about a baseball game. After Neil Walker and Andrew McCutchen hit back-to-back doubles in the first inning to put the Pirates ahead 1-0, Wandy Rodriguez faced the minimum number of hitters in the second through eighth innings. That resulted in a 2-1 Astros lead going into the bottom of...

Hey Nate McLouth…. That guy is awful. He should be cut, tomorrow. I’m not sure why “The Color Purple” himself Clint Hurdle has him batting second. I don’t want it to seem like it’s only Nate’s fault. It definitely isn’t. But he is so bad. The Pirates acquired Jeff Larish… If he is anything more [...]

Poor Offensive Free Agents Hurting the Bucs Again

Seeing free agent signings fall flat is nothing new to the Pittsburgh Pirates. After all, this franchise has endured the likes of Adam Laroche, Jeromy Burnitz, Joe Randa, Raul Mondesi and, of course, Derek Bell. While Clint Barmes's poor play hasn't reached the point where it could be considered a "saga", I still believe it belongs in the conversation of worst...

In the first of a two game series, the Pittsburgh Pirates took Monday’s game over the Miami Marlins by a final score of 3-2. The loss prevented the Marlins from reaching three games over .500, something they have yet to do this season. This result also means Miami will be unable to win a fourth consecutive series as the best they can hope for now is a series split.
