    As we are giving the lead up against trash, the Phillies are up 2-0. Just embarrassing baseball.

    We’ve lost either way, this game will very likely be called due to rain.

    Just delay the freaking game like it should've been a while ago. Winkler is a cutter guy, so he's not going to do well at all here. He's not gripping the ball.
    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.

    Yup. It may have cost us the lead anyways.

    The Phillies are facing the worst team in the NL. We’re down one against one of the best teams in the NL. Hardly trash. Calm the **** down.

    They will--after the Snakes have scored two or more runs.

    They’ve lost 8 of 9. Yes, trash.

    It definitely did, because guys that have cutters/breaking balls can struggle with grip in wet conditions.

    Meh, im no Snit fan but it should have been first two out since Freeman got squeezed on 3-2.

    Not Snits fault the Braves only have 1 run.

    I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I wasn’t really sure why we took Freeman out anyways.

    Dude’s stuff isn’t lucky, he’s good. But sucky pitching stretches are sadly part of it.

    Ding dong eddie strong.

    I'm not giving excuses, I've heard that breaking ball/cutter guys can struggle when it's wet. Dude came in and immediately threw the ball to the backstop. That shows no grip for his main pitch.

    Ump missing Freeman's strike three pitch is now the difference in this game. Great.
