I am still a fan and will always be one! Yet, after last nights game, we need a new closer. Grant it, they should have kept Grabow in considering he actually was doing good. I can't take much more of Capps. He is my least favorite player and last night proved why. We should have had that game won easily with the lead we had. A special mention though to the amazing play by Jack Wilson. pittsburgh.pirates.mlb.com/media/video.jsp?content_id=5541169&c_id=pit He runs into short left field and makes a sliding catch, then jumps up, turns around and throws it to first to get the double play. SPECTACULAR! I am greatly disappointed though that it is not on ESPN's Top 10 Plays (at least I don't think it was....but then again we have to remember that their idea of a Top 10 Play is some guy making a catch in centerfield standing in the same spot...oh boy, how amazing) Excellent job by Jack! We also need a new front office too, but that is a different story. Fire Neal Huntington! P.S - I am going to the game on Friday vs. the Giants. Everyone here please cross your fingers and cheer hard that we win! (I know I will be during the game!)

I won't be a fan until the pirates can compete in the MLB Central Division. I did however go see the Royals... been a fan since the days of George Brett. In some sense... the Pirates of the American League. BUT the Royals org is doing things differently now. The Pirates however sent me a survey to ask me what I wanted to purchase a ticket package... my response was a winning team on the field. I am tired of the bullcrap they trade for year in and year out. To be honest... I am surprised Freddy and Jack are still around. I don't know... I would rather watch poker (which I dislike) than watch Pirate baseball right now. It should be alright Amy! The Giants aren't central division opponents so there is a chance the Buccos could win... Have fun!

I think we should be alright. My dad and I have gone to two games this year and we are 2-0! That has to be a good omen.
