    Giving up 14 while being no hit by Anibal Sanchez. That’s a whole different level of suck.

    By Gausman looking "that" bad. Maybe he wasn't hit "that" hard, but he threw a lot of pitches in the middle of the plate.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    Yeah, if "fun" is being stabbed repeatedly in the groin with an icepick.
    Watching something as historic as a perfect game has to be pretty fun, irl, even if on the losing end.

    I’ve already seen a perfect game thrown against the Braves. I’m good for a lifetime.

    You’ve never seen one at SunTrust. Chip’s point stands.

    Because he'll fight Snitker if he tries to remove him. He believes in fighting with every last inch of his body, through bad and through good.

    Watched Randy Johnson do it against the Braves and that's plenty. Right now we're the Washington Generals, the other guys are the Globetrotters and we're getting absolutely clowned.

    As the score gets more lopsided and the perfecto drags on, it will be entertaining to see just how irrational everyone gets over a single game haha.

    Oh, I have plenty of irrationalness left in the tank. I'm just hoping for a braves' hit so I can turn this crap off... maybe shoot my tv with one of my many guns (I'm a Mississippian, you know)

    Albies just took care of the perfecto. Too bad as I was really hoping to see two perfect games thrown against the Braves by two first round Hall of Fame pitchers.

    Since I don’t see the Braves scoring fifteen tonight, I was honestly rooting for the perfect game from Sanchez—would be pretty hilarious.
