As I [suspected yesterday], the Pirates are indeed interested in Daniel Cabrera. They aren't alone, though: the [Baltimore Sun] reports that 11 teams are interested in him. The Bucs are definitely among that group though, since both [beat] [writers] confirmed the club's interest...

After a horrific 5-16 (.238) April, we had to believe that things couldn't get worse for the Nats in the season's second month. They didn't get much better, either, though. The Nats went just 8-20 (.286) in May. While their performance in the second...
