Again, we're hearing rumors that Ian Snell could be headed to the Yankees. The latest is that the Yanks have scouts watching him pitch for the Pirates AAA team today.Snell isn't going to be the Yankees savior but he's shut down AAA hitters, has experience in the bullpen and rotation, and has a fairly dramatic ERA/FIP split. Sort of a meh move if it does happen. I hope...

There isn’t much to say about this one. Virgil Vasquez started and was pretty awful (4 runs in 3 innings). The relief efforts of Jeff Karstens (3 runs in 3.2 innings) and Matt Capps (2 runs in 1 inning) didn’t help, either.
Arizona’s hard-throwing Max Scherzer mowed down the offense, and the Bucs were shut out [...]

Guess what, the Yankees are yet again mentioned in another possible rumor for a starting pitcher.
This time, it's Pittsburgh Pirates right-hander Ian Snell.
Because the Pirates aren't a premium team that gets virtually no attention, nobody knows a lot about Snell.
Snell is currently 27-years old and has pitched his entire career with Pittsburgh since being called up back...

A team that hasn't scored since Friday doesn't need to face Tim Lincecum. Too bad for the Pirates that they don't really get a say in the matter. Paul Maholm and Lincecum kick off a three-game set in San Fran at 10:15 tonight. Freddy Sanchez is scratched, but because of his gimpy knee and not for more nefarious reasons. As far as we know.

On the bright side, at least the scored some runs tonight.
On the less-than-bright side, the Pirates lost (again), they played some ridiculously horrendous defense, the Giants' scorekeeper is a huge homer and didn't score any of the Pirates' terrible defense as errors which cost Paul Maholm in the ERA column tonight, the umps missed the call on the most ridiculous play...
