I'm excited to finally go to Baltimore, I think it's been like 8 years since we've been there

I haven't been to their park since I was young, but I'm really determined to make the trip next season. I also wanna head to PNC, I know their park is beautiful as well. So excited

I remember it as an administrative mistake by the Pirates, leaving Chamberlain and Peguero exposed on waivers. Phils claimed them and sent Martinez to the Bucs for Longmire as well.

Mikey Mart in the lineup today... Polanco hurt again? Or just a day off? Polanco could be the softest player in team history. Floppy was right. Sack up and play.

They said scheduled day off after first game back, and with a long flight to Colorado after the game. He'll start tomorrow night.

The Pirates also left Moises Alou exposed. He was claimed by the Expos.

I would think somebody got fired for that.

if i'm using fangraphs correctly, the phillies hitting, starting pitching, and relief pitching each lead the nl in war in july. fielding was the only weakness.
