Pirates vs. Cubs July 31-August 1

[Bagman]

For the most part they got 3 members of their 25 man roster for Cole. Moran, Musgrove, and Felix, recently sent down. 3 for 1 isn't bad. Now we just gave up 2 for 1. We'll see what happens.

Don't forget Jason Martin was also part of that deal , he is only 22 and done real well at AA and is hitting .283 in AAA .

I already said that and I got shot down for it.

And let me repeat what I said the first time, Whoopdeedoo!  Moran is a slow lefthanded hitting, poor fielding third baseman with all of eight home runs and a 265 average.  Those are good numbers for a slick fielding shortstop.  Mike Moustakas signed a one year $5 million contract with the Royals in the offseason.  Musgrove has been OK, an adequate fourth or fifth starter and Feliz?  Big deal.  Same with the minor league suspect.

Feliz stinks. Moran has been pretty bad. Musgrove seems good, he’s been their second best pitcher. 

I think Jason Martin is a good prospect, he was part of the reason I think they get OK with trading Meadows. So he played a role in yesterday’s deal.
