BRAD LINCOLN RUMORS & GOSSIP
Kevin Correia vs. Brad Lincoln
Assuming the Pirates don't make another starting pitcher acquisition before the season starts, it looks like the rotation will look like this:Erik BedardJames McDonaldCharlie MortonJeff KarstensKevin Correia / Brad LincolnNow Morton may miss a start or two, so he will actually be penciled in as the fifth starter at the beginning of the season, and both Correia and Lincoln are...

Digging deeper into Brad Lincoln's 2011
In part one on Wednesday, I talked about how Brad Lincoln was able to get more groundballs in 2011, which went a long ways towards halving his home run rate and making him more effective than he was with the Pirates in 2010. In part two, let's tackle the deeper questions. What made Lincoln more effective last year and is it something that we can count on from him in 2012?First stop...

What does Brad Lincoln bring to the table for 2012?
If the 2012 season was starting tomorrow, the Pirates rotation would likely feature James McDonald, Erik Bedard, Charlie Morton, Jeff Karstens, and Kevin Correia in some order. That's an interesting because of the talent that exists in the first three spots, but it's also a paper-thin one. Charlie Morton already has an injury that could cut into the early part of the season and we...

Chris Leroux Up, Brad Lincoln Down
Leroux has been called up.
After making a somewhat successful spot start yesterday, Brad Lincoln has been sent down to AAA by the Pittsburgh Pirates, and Chris Leroux has been recalled. I talked about Leroux in this morning’s Daily Player Profile, and how he’s basically a new pitcher, with a new arm slot and an effective slider. It should be interesting to see how...

Who Creates Space For Brad Lincoln?
Remember back in the off-season when the Pittsburgh Pirates were starved for pitching help? At one point in time, people were calling for the Pirates to add Armando Galarraga to the rotation, thinking he'd be an obvious upgrade. Galarraga was recently waived, which means the Pirates could have a chance to claim him. However, at [...]

Brad Lincoln: Shattered Shoulder, Shattered Potential
At one point, Brad Lincoln was said to have the potential to become better than any pitcher in the Pirates organization. In 2010, the 25-year old would bury that statement six feet deep during his eight major league starts in June and July.
In his MLB debut, Lincoln was rocked by the Chicago White Sox for five runs in six innings. Neither the fans nor the organization lost faith...

Brad Lincoln: it’s everybody else’s fault I suck(ed)
Wow. Now that was one of the ugliest defensive games of the year.
‘Nuff said.
—
211 runs allowed in the third and fourth innings (plus 4 Wednesday night) is a telltale sign to me that we’re putting too many 7th inning guys on the mound to start games. I expect to see higher runs allowed in those innings, but not 28% of our overall runs allowed. That’s...

Lincoln to Indy
Brad Lincoln had another poor outing Sunday afternoon, and he was optioned back to Triple-A Indianapolis after the game as a result.
Lincoln, who gave up 6 runs in 6.1 innings (8 hits, 2 walks, 3 K’s), has struggled since his long-awaited callup. His fastball is relatively flat and far from overpowering, and his changeup still needs work. Brad’s curveball is his strength, but...

Brad Lincoln blown out yet again and Alvarez continues to whiff
It didn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out Brad Lincoln was going to have his hands full Tuesday night with the Astros. And right off the bat you wouldn’t know they were the weakest hitting team in baseball as they scored a run off a Bourn single off Lincoln’s glove, he then stole second, went to third on Keppinger line out to right, and scored on a Berkman...
