Confused? Me too.
So, I went to the supposed source, Kristy Robinson, a Pittsburgh Pirates beat reporter for Ohio Valley Athletics. She’s a self-proclaimed “rookie” in the business, and I wanted to make sure she didn’t confuse Emmanuel Burriss (the Giants infielder who did...

Pirates Sign Brian Burres To Conquer For Indians
Brian Burres signed a minor-league deal with the Pittsburgh Pirates with an invite to spring training. Pray that the 29-year old Burres pitches well in 2010, but just never in Pittsburgh.

His ERA is sitting at a much more palatable 4.25 in games he has...
