KEVIN CORREIA RUMORS
Who Should The Pirates Opening Day Starter Be?
It's incredibly early to write this post, but I kind of just wanted to beat everyone else to the punch.The Pittsburgh Pirates open up their 2012 season on April 5th at home against the Philadelphia Phillies. That means Roy Halladay. So who will the Pirates roll out against him? There are six options, sort of. In ALPHABETICAL order (for the sake of SUSPENSE), the options are...

Correia hopes to lead staff again
Pirates' right-hander Kevin Correia was the best starter in the first half of the season in 2011 and made the All-Star team but struggled after the break before getting hurt. Correia is hoping to bounce back strong after going on the disabled list in August. Correia finished the season with a 12-11 mark and a 4.79 ERA. PiratesDugout.com's George Von Benko spoke with Correia recently.

Kevin Correia to Replace Hamels in All-Star Game
Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Kevin Correia (11-6, 3.74) will be going to the MLB All-Star after all.
Correia was initially left off the NL roster, but will now replace Philadelphia Phillies starter Cole Hamels. Hamels – along with Giants pitcher Matt Cain – is scheduled to start the Sunday before the All-Star game.
Since Hamels was chosen to the game via the players...

The Electric Meter: Righties and lefties
In yesterday's Electric Meter, I set out to find the root of Charlie Morton's struggles over the last month. As it turned out, though, there wasn't much to see. Morton's pitches look the same, his peripherals look better, and the only thing that's different over the last month is the opponent's batting average on balls in play, which is something that's generally hard for a pitcher...

Game 78: Pirates 7 Blue Jays 6
The Pirates dodged a bullet here, almost literally. They ran out to an early lead with Alex Presley's first Major League homer (a great, quick, easy swing through a bad pitch that Jo-Jo Reyes left up in the zone) and then piled on four more runs in the fourth after the Blue Jays outfield turned a Matt Diaz single into a triple. It's hard not to feel good about a 6-1 lead...

Alex Presley helps lead Pirates to victory in Toronto
Presley's HR in the 3rd was the 1st of his career.
Final: Pirates 7, Blue Jays 6
WP: Kevin Correia (10-6)
LP: Jo-Jo Reyes (3-7)
SV: Joel Hanrahan (23)
Alex Presley sure knows how to get on Pirates’ fans good side. He opened up the scoring in the 3rd inning with a 2-run homer to give the Bucs a 2-0 lead. They would stay ahead the remainder of the game.
Kevin Correia picked up his...

Pirates Blast Cubs Behind Kevin Correia’s Gem
Starting pitcher Kevin Correia continues to be, far and away, the Pirates’ best offseason signing.
He leads all of Major League Baseball in wins (7) and is second in the team’s rotation in ERA (3.44). The 30-year-old has allowed two or less earned runs in seven of his ten starts with the Pirates, and opponents carry just a .262 average against him.
