While we wuz wondering where the other 8" of snow are this morning, this happened....

  • The Bucs defeated the Phils 4-1 yesterday; Josh Harrison crushed a home run. Pirate LHP Yao-Hsun Yang banged a couple of Phils; AJ dinged a couple of Corsairs.
  • Pittsburgh hosts the Bosox today at 1:05 PM. The lineup: Starling Marte LF, Russ Martin C, Cutch CF, Pedro DH, Neil Walker 2B, Travis Snider RF, Andrew Lambo 1B, Robert Adino 3B and Clint Barmes SS. The pitchers: LHP Francisco Liriano, RHP Edinson Volquez, RHP Mark Melancon, LHP Tony Watson, LHP Justin Wilson, RHP Bryan Morris and RHP Jared Hughes.
  • John Perrotto of the Beaver County Times takes a look at one of the Bucco organizational keystones, pitching coach Ray Searage.
  • Colin Dunlap of KDKA writes that the Gregory Polanco bandwagon should slow down a bit...
  • The Pirates rank fourth in Baseball Prospectus' rankings of Under-25 talent. BP also ranks Reese McGuire among the top defensive catchers on the farm, writing that " McGuire could jump all other contenders and challenge...for the top spot by this time next year."
