I was a bit surprised that I completely missed this concert in town 2 days ago. No matter, I wouldn't have been able to make it anyhow. I've seen Yes about 10 times over the years. The last time they . . .

Here is the New York Times review of the VdGG concert in NYC last week. Its nice to see them getting this much recognition. My only complaint with the review is that the writer completely missed the point . . .

Since the trades of Jason Bay and Xavier Nady most people have been of the opinion that the Pirates have been playing significantly worse, especially offensively. This is a very easy conclusion to draw, . . .

Much has been made recently of the Pirates tying the Philadelphia Phillies with 16 straight years of below .500 baseball. This record is not just a baseball record, it is for all professional sports. . . .

A couple of days ago , it was announced the the Pirates will no longer be broadcast on KDKA radio after the 2006 season is over.

Since the middle of the 2005 season the Pirates have undergone more changes than any season that I can remember. Last years opening day line up was :

Game 2 was pretty much a carbon copy of Game 1. Good pitching, good
defense and timely hitting won the game. Ian Snell was dominant with a
career high 11 Ks over 6 innings. The X-Man was the offensive . . .

I would like to know how it is that Rob Neyer has determined that Freddie Sanchez is performing at a level worth $18M this year and that Jack Wilson is performing at a level worth over $12M. They are . . .

ESPN's Jayson Stark pulls out a pretty big name when finding someone to compare to Pedro Alvarez. The first half of the article is mostly on Alvarez's contract situation last summer, but then . . .

This will be very fascinating to see how this plays out. The Pirates a certainly trying to paint Scott Boras as the bad guy here, which he very well may be, but we'll have to give this some time to . . .

I have been meaning to post an overview of the Pirates pitching staff, but keep putting it off, partially because the more I think about it, the more I realize there just isn't a lot to say right now. . . .

I was hoping to complete this yesterday, but 'twas not to be. So here is my prediction on how the Pirates will fare in 2006, one game into the season.

I did not get to see yesterday's game, since it wasn't on FSN and I don't pay for one of those every game packages. Baseball already takes too much of my time as it is. That said, Bucco Blog . . .

One thing I often like to do is go to the Baseball Reference web site and search on a particular player to see how the Pirates acquired that player. Very often somebody who came up through the Pirates . . .

I keep thinking about Oliver's performance against the Red Sox 2 days ago. The game was on ESPN so I got to see some of it.
