Jays Lose To Pirates
Pirates 4 Blue Jays 1 The worst parts about today’s game was that Dylan Cease and Vladimir Guerrero each left the game with injuries. Cease in the fifth, the Jays are calling it hamstring discomfort, which is about as good as the news could be. Vlad was hit on the inside of the right arm […]
Game #53 GameThread: Pirates @ Jays
Time for a sweep. Two games under .500 and tied to for the last Wild Card spot. It seems strange to have a playoff spot while being under .500, but I’ll take it. Nathan Lukes is playing for Dunedin today, so he should be back soon. George Springer is hitting again, six game hitting streak […]

Nice Start For Gausman, Jays Win
Pirates 2 Blue Jays 6 That game had everything. Good pitching. Timely hits. Good defense. And stuff to argue about. Let’s start with that.

Pirates gamble on Nick Gonzales is paying off
The Pirates were initially seen as failures in the offseason when they weren’t able to add a player to be their everyday third baseman. The Ke’Bryan Hayes trade that the team made at the deadline in 2025 left more questions than answers and admittedly I thought the Pirates were foolish to trade Hayes away in […]

The Pittsburgh Pirates got a much-need 7-0 win last night over the St.Louis Cardinals.

JJ Wetherholt’s Multi-Hit Game Not Enough-Cardinals Fall to Pirates 7-0
Michael McGreevy’s command was not sharp Wednesday night against Pittsburgh, but he toughed his way through 5 innings before turning the game over to the bullpen which is where the game eventually fell apart. That combined with the St. Louis Cardinals offense finding it difficult to get runs across the plate made for an uphill […]
