If Cueto could make all his starts against the pirates he'd have all the records. Dude so dang good against us.

On a team full of hotdogs, Billy Hamilton stands out as a giant hotdog.

This is where they drill Cutch.

Marlon misplayed that into a much more difficult catch.

I had to work late and missed the whole game. I guess we saw the return on Master Arsonist Tony Watson?

He'll put out more fires than start them this season (we hope).

I only watched a few innings of exhibition ball. Who is Rob Scahill? I assume he's gone once Morton is healthy

Harrison's deal could reach $50.3 million total with club options.
'15- $1million signing bonus, $2.8 million salary
'16- $ 5million
'17- $7.5 million
'18- $10 million
'19- $10.5 million ($1 million buyout)
'20- $11million ($500k buyout)
Buyout amounts can increase by up to $1 million per, I believe based on MVP voting if applicable

With that pitch count, Cole will be lucky to make to the 6th.

Dropping 2 to the hated Reds to start the year, with the 'pen as the main culprit. Bleh.

Can't stand the Reds. Bucs have battled in both games, though, showing some early season resiliency. You'd like to pull one of those two games out, but it's tough to win games like that on the road. We'll see how today goes...if they play.

Hurdle with his classic "can't use the closer because it's not a save situation" so now we get to watch some bum who wasn't even supposed to make the team let the reds walk off another one.

Well, it's not like it's a division...never mind.
