    And the chants of Mahki Mahki Mahki go up.
    "I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."

    "I am your retribution."

    Backstrom is now 3-3 and Freeman is rumored to have come down with a terrible case of diarrhea.

    Backstrom taken out of the game after the top of the 6th. Can he get to Milwaukee by game time?

    Wright was announced for Gwinnett and then scratched, so Clouse started tonight.

    I think there's a real shot that he's starting tomorrow and is the first pushback for the rotation. He struggled to start, but in the last month or so, his pitches are moving a lot more like they did last year. He might've been a new ball casualty because of him being unorthodox. I don't think it'd make sense to scratch him while he's in a groove and then not use him, so we'll see if this is the case.
    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.

    I really do think that Backstrom could end up being the best player from this draft.

    Probably worth noting that two of backstrom’s hits were listed as a ground ball to third base and a fly ball to shortstop.

    We should all be happy if he's another Andrelton Simmons.
    Go get him!

    There’s no room on the scorecard for comments.
