At this point winning the division is a more realistic option rather than a wilcard spot. The buccos only have 2 teams to jump and the Cards are coming back down and the m's are looking pretty ordinary,meanwhile Arizona and the Padres are on the rise.

Watched some minor league ball and i gotta say i like the challenge system where the hitter gets to challenge called strikes twice. Umpiring has become pretty horrific i mean folks have been comolaining about umps since baseball started,this crop of umps now though are pretty bad . Im not in favor of robo umps but that challenge system looks pretty fair and fast to me.

Well Josh ive decided not to watch the Pirates games this week. Not because i'm pis$ed or anything. Its because i think this week is going to be great starting pitching,adequate offence putting up early leads,followed by the bullpen collapsing. I really hope i'm wrong and the Pirates go 6 and 2 against the Padres and Dodgers at least. Thats what i hope happens,what my rational mind tells me is the Pirates are going to lose a lot of close games this week in the late innings. Anyway brother, may you and Jake along with your family have a safe happy week.

Checked to see what the score was and what do i see? The frickin grounds crew looking like circus clowns trying to move water from one spot to another !! I mean this crap just happened the other day and should have never happened again,wtf!? This is a supposed major league franchise looking like a bush league organization. Unbelievable!! This is embarassing.
