Exactly.

Though it does raise the question: what WOULD convince you Rowand was coming out of it?

I’m not sure I know at this point. I’ve been so pleased with the current outfield that I’d still rather give Nate more starts before I decide if Rowand has his shit together.

I just got home from work and just caught it at the 8th inning and I’m already pissed off, how did you last the whole game?

I was listening to vuvuzelas and reading Fear the Fin, so that probably helped.

Why was bengie catching after the 3rd inning?

What exactly did he do to help us?

Seriously this is fucking bullshit

I am so sick of bengie playing everyday and shortening the line up to pirates standards.

Yeah, even Rowand and Renteria contributed. Bengie? Not so much.

Bengie?

Only cost the team the game.

According to gameday

It was 3 pitches, to the same basic spot, at the same basic speed, and 3 swings and misses. Attaboy!

If they scored this much in Cain’s game on Saturday, they would have won. :(

The astro’s did more to help them than they did to get them out.

Barely paid attention to this one.

I don’t regret that decision.

16-22 on the road so far, and an 11-game road trip coming next week (just as soon as we face those pushover teams, the Red Sox and Dodgers).

It was only two bad games in a row.

They have been pitching decently.

Am I the only one that thinks Uribe's defense at 3rd is actually worse then Pablo's?

Uribe seems to play better defense at SS.

infinitely better at SS. Just ask Jonathan Sanchez.

Well, that's why.

The dude who plays every single day at a position is usually going to field more smoothly than a spot starter.
