    I really like Fried, but he probably needs to be on the trade list. He just can’t stay healthy.

    I have never believed in Allard and we have probably waited too long to deal him.

    Seriously...

    The scout that convinced the FO to take him #1 needs to have his head cut off publicly...to set an example

    recently it's been blisters and he just got hit with a 104 MPH ball off the bat.

    A bunch of scouts must need that then, as they thought he'd go #1 in the draft then before the back.
    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.

    He really struggles after the first time through. Braves goofed by not getting more than 1 vs him. They got what they wanted, 5 and fly.

    It might be time for us to stop tipping our caps to opposing pitchers. We got largely manhandled by Oswalt Sunday and only scored 1 against Rodriguez in 5 IP today. Those guys aren't exactly studs.

    it's possible it happened with the sudden, quick move to get out of the way

    It’s his decreased velo. He was hitting 95 in high school. They should have realized like last year that was never coming back though.

    Ah, they're playing a team that below .500 just last week. Nothing to worry about.

    It's a real conundrum on which prediction I want to be correct

    Rodriguez is actually pretty good 1 time through. The goof? Not getting more than 1 after than.
