    Acuna called up

    About time, Tucker's been trash for the last 2 weeks.

    Let's get it on.

    Because Snitker doesn't play everyone's lovechild Camargo so he sucks.

    I was going to start a Tucker Watch thread on how bad he's been since the date Acuna could have been called up. This saves me some time.

    I've agreed with your thoughts on Hernandez and Snits from long before you started. I was down on Hernandez from day 1 of his tenure when I read his "resume" of failures.

    This should improve the lineup and the bench as Tucker is a better hitter than any of our current backups.

    I'm ready to see him play regardless but I think it's pretty funny that the wait ended up being until "2 terrible losses to the Reds".

    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.

    Can he do a mini-Otani and play OF and be a relief pitcher?

    agh, this should've said funny, not fun...wasn't awake as it was early.
