Things continue along and the Pirates are 6-8 at this point. Not all that good. But, some good news came out of this latest disaster. Meek and Hanrahan blew a 4-1 lead. Not good. But the good thing is the Malholm pitched well. Cory Wimberly got his first hit of the spring. It will be interesting to see where he goes from here. Matt Diaz is on a roll and McCutchen is hitting better now as well. These are overall good things.
Defense continues to be a worry. 4 errors in the latest game.
Andy Marte is making a real case to get on this team. He is even getting pinch hits now. The Pirates pitchers are now hitting. I like the approach Hurdle is taking. Aggressive on the base paths, and getting everyone ready now.
Lincoln is looking better than Morton, although both had so-so outings. Lincoln recovered in his to only use 6 pitches in the second inning. Morton is always getting into trouble. It is going to stink watching him blow games this year.
Karstens pitched okay. Errors hurt him.
We will see where the Pirates go, but right now, I am feeling only okay about the team.
