Today's the day the Pirates begin their unlikely march towards the playoffs. We're going to take 2 of 3 against the Brewers, and then go on a tear from that point on. McCutchen will solidify his NL MVP victory over this stretch as well.
 
isn't that bitch?

No.

Fucking idiot.
 
TOR @ NYY, LAD @ WAS, and PHI @ NYM all postponed.

Blue Jays and Yankees will make up their game tomorrow at 1:35 PM ET as part of a day-night doubleheader.

Dodgers and Nationals will make up their game tomorrow at 4:35 PM ET as part of a split doubleheader.

Phillies and Mets will make up their game on Thursday 9/20 at 7:10 PM ET, which was previously an offday for both teams.

ah yes i can see how the final series will play out. Braves-Pirates. The pirates are a game away from elimination. Top of the 9th, the braves have moved within one to make the score 2-1 on a martin prado sac fly that scored chipper jones. Jason Heyward is on 3rd, Freddie Freeman on 2nd with 2 outs and J.C. Boscan at the plate. Suddenly he hits a line drive to left field, Heyward scores the tying run. Starling Marte loads up and tries to throw out the slow freddie freeman who just rounded third and is charging toward home as fast as he can. Here comes the throw, freeman prepares to slide feet first as he sees heyward telling him to get down.

SAFE! Safe at the plate! Braves go the playoffs. Pirates are cursed for another 20 yrs.
 
It would be hilarious if the Braves stamped out the Pirates in that final series of the season. Maybe they can sign Sid Bream to be a pinch-runner.

Man, line drives right at people and balls caught right up against the wall. Sooner or later we are going to bust out of this offensive funk.

Moylan got shelled at every minor league level. No idea why Wren brought him up. Loyalty I guess.
being a nice guy in baseball gets you pretty far, just look how long Scott Proctor's career was.

they still might finish above .500!

haha this that i did raise my expectations. and yes there is still a slight chance we finish above .500 which would be grand but at the same time, facing all the under .500 teams and shitting the bed and missing the 2nd wc by such a small margin stings
