    Erik Bedard unconditionally released by Pirates

    Chase d'Arnaud called up. Finally had enough of Erik's Shizz , though he's hardly to blame for their recent struggles.

    Once a bum, always a bum. I'm surprised he actually pitched all season vs. going on the DL with a sprained vagina.

    I really expected him to outlast Correia. Bedard was a real disappointment.

    Bedard doesnt belong in the majors.
    I watched him for years in Baltimore and he was terrible.

    I'd compare Bedard to David DeJesus for the Cubs or Coco Crisp for Oakland.

    For years, you're always intrigued by how good they'd be if they didn't get hurt and actually played a full season. Then you see it and realize they're more valuable in small doses -- at best.

    He had a few decent years, mainly in Baltimore. Since then, straight garbage

    Pirates gave up, they are happy to have a winning season + fans

    Building towards next year, Cinci buried em

    Beaded started out impressive. Would have been nice if they coulda been in position to trade him.

    Chase is not ready, but he has been hot lately and is always fast

    A winning season is quickly becoming a concern
