    I like Garcia and hope the kid does well, has the making of an ace for years to come... I actually like Carpy too just because the guy is a closest nutbag and a solid pitcher but I hope they both have off games this week for my Buccos sake.

      gotta figure tonight all pit gonna see is Carp for 7 plus and Lynn if needed who is the only thing in the pen i remotely trust b4 Salas ( hopefully a save situation arises) who i think can handle buccos lineup. think line a little disrespectful tho seeing how Cards not really clicking at the plate and field worse than my nephews teeball team. would think under with a decent ump and possibly some kind of Pujols prop as he eats Maholm up and looked sharp against a lefty yesterday.

      but i dont got the time right now ill be back later on and try to figure this thing out.

        I was hoping they would have Meek and Hanrahan as an 8-9 shutdown come mid-August.
        did that to make room for Grilli. He'll fill that roll.

              i like hurdle and usually dont mind his strategy. but walking punto intentionally is a bad idea. and it backfired.

                        Nice win today to gain some momentum heading down to Georgia.

                        Let's hope the Giants win today so the Buccos can leave town in 1st place...

                          A loss today could've started a hell of a slide. This game, and the way we won it, could have put a stop to it.

                            RAISE IT!

                            Another solid pitching and defensive performance by the Buccos!

                            When is ESPN having us on again?

                                great win for Buccos last night, not sure if you guys know this but now they are 8-1 on 1st gm of road trip posting a 7-2 mark to the under, obvioulsy this team leaves home and is successful in getting teams to play their style of game.

                                cashed with the bucs ff and under last night and seems to me like they are even being more disrespected with this line today. didnt have time to do much work on it but pit +1.5 almost has to be a play and prob ml as well, would like under again but Hannson has struggld since break which is yet another reason this line is so confusing/disrespectful.

                                  Absolutely nothing wrong with a split in Atlanta. The Bucs outscored the Braves 12-9. Pittsburgh's pitching has been awesome!

                                  Fukk You, Jerry Meals! Pirates fans will NEVER forget that call at the home!

                                  Let's hope the momentum carries on to the City of Brotherly Love this weekend!

                                    Bucs played 47 innings and bad defense and still only gave up 9 runs. This staff is legitimate.

                                        what a great series by Bucs

                                        wish i had the stones to take them today but wast sure, figured hitting rl last 2 and ff ml and un 1st gm was enough, i should have been greedy with it today.....Great effort by them, stand proud boys

                                        Ok on to fri night, tough spot for your boys. believe this offense is scrappy enough to plate a few on Doc, but Morton could be in real trouble here and your pen cant be in the best shape. Gotta think Morton gonna look like tee ball after seeing frisco's staff (no disrespect)....total too low i believe and gonna prob take a stab at the over with a decent ump...

                                        Thoughts?

                                          tough run lately but the addition of d lee will help tremendously. we need to get this last one against the phils and then we get the cubs. back in this thing next week. still need a right fielder. gimme francouer or willingham and ill be happy. they are talking kubel but id like a little more pop.

                                              would like to play the Buccos or the under but little tough to pull the trigger considering Karstens struggles during the day and Pence has hit him really well. of coarse Bucs are scrappy which makes under even tougher as i almost always trust them to manufacture a few runs. Harry you cant really put any stock into that can you? im not saying pit is a bad play but phi could have never swept pit and that doesnt make it any more or less likely for it to happen 2marro..Hope Bucs can pull it out but ill prob be on the sidelines unless something really changes my mind when i wake up.....Go Buccos!!!

                                                    The Buccos picked up Derrek Lee tonight from Baltimore. I like this acquisition.

                                                    Hopefully he can provide the offense punch that Lyle Overbay couldn't.

                                                    Now we need to get someone to replace Steve Pearce. This guy has never lived up to his hype and potential.
