I swear this team leaves the bases loaded every other game.

I wonder how many runs we've given up because of Ed Sedar. First and third with one out and we end up getting nothing.

Runner on third with no outs and we can't plate Schafer. Sad business.

#1. Ramirez just can't catch a break. #2. How long until some moves start to be made? Tired of seeing guys who are struggling (Rickie, Gonzalez, Lucroy, Yuni, etc.) in the lineup every day. Perhaps if we would've spent a little in the offseason to bring in some legit help off the bench... #3. As for the pitching, we knew this was going to be a train wreck. I'm pretty sure RR and everyone in the front office knew it too. Coming off of a year in which we had a mediocre-at-best pitching staff, you'd think the problem would've been addressed a little bit more than signing Kyle Lohse, Burke Badenhop, Tom Gorzelanny and Mike Gonzalez. It's like we picked up all the toys that none of the other teams wanted to play with anymore.

I'll be so glad when Corey is back. ...until he starts out the year hitting .220. EDIT: Boy, the Pirates must be feeding off of our pessimism. Once again, it seems like a two-run deficit is going to be impossible to overcome.

But yet Rickie gets the error because he rushed the throw. What could've been a great, inning-ending play turns into an error and another run. Two run lead with one of the best closers in the league right now = see ya tomorrow night, folks. Yeesh this team is hard to watch right now. Hope they can pull another 9-game winning streak out of their arses!

BA: "Ron Roenicke out to make another change. And here comes John Axford." Translation: "Ron Roenicke out to surrender the game. And here comes the white flag."

After putting up such a nice team effort in game one, these guys look like they just wanna get out of town. Hope they realize it won't get any easier....[sarcasm]should be a fun series in St. Louis![/sarcasm]

Thank you, Rick. I had a feeling you would actually supply some sort of production for the team tonight. If you could just do that every few nights you'll never hear it from us again!

[sarcasm]It's cool, guys. All we need is two runs and we're back in this thing![/sarcasm]

And here comes the pain....

Nice quick inning for Gallardo. Let's get some runs now, eh?

Saw that as well. Thought either the picture on my TV was taking a poop (which would be a shame since it's not even a year old) or I was hallucinating. Pittsburgh must have a new "Fight Club" attraction at the ballpark this season. Except nobody knows about it since, well...you know.

[sarcasm]I'm feeling a Rickie base knock here.[/sarcasm] EDIT: Forgot sarcasm font.

I'm guessing it's not Honus Wagner?
