Given my druthers I'd take the 2 against Colorado and 1 against LA because Colorado is the tougher mark going forward, but that seems damn unlikely. Gimme wins with Flaherty against LAD and Mikolas against Colorado and I'll take it. Stealing one with Gomber was nice but trying to get through those guys with Gomber/Gant at Coors and PDL starting against a weird lefty is a hell of an ask. |

Your boy Carpenter is having one hell of a season.
Does he have a shot at MVP? My Pirate's pitchers hold two teams to only 1 run in 5 straight games yet lose 3 of the 5. That sums up this year for my Buccos! |

Dafuq?
So we didn't even claim him? That's just goddamn absurd. He's an absolutely ideal fit for this squad. |

We apparently traded for Matt Adams though.
Lefty off the bench? |

With Russell's struggles you can move Baez to SS and get a bat the team desperately needs to simply make contact with the ball on a regular basis. Hopefully a deal gets done. |

Just watched a piece on mlb network that the Cardinals claimed Harper and are in talks with Washington to complete the deal. They were not reporting it as fact, just that’s what they are hearing.

You get that first one, and obviously your opportunities for winning each series become much more likely. |

At this point you cant expect to give up much to acquire him given that only 1 team is on the negotiating table and the Nationals would need to get more than what they would get from giving him a QO. |
