After a 4-3 win this afternoon, the Pirates are now 5-0 against the Chicago Cubs. If only they had 100 more games against them......
-Andrew McCutchen is 11 for 14 in the four games he has played against Chicago with a .785/.813/.1071 batting line.
-The Pirates have outscored the Cubs 32 to 14 in 5 games while being outscored in the other 31 games 206 to 96.
-In their last 6 innings against the Cubs, the Pirate bullpen has 11 strikeouts.
If you are getting dominated like the Cubs are against a team that just allowed Homer Bailey to throw a 90 pitch shutout the day after Johnny Cueto one hit them, how can Lou Pinella's job not be in jeopardy?
Did I mention they have a guy in the bullpen making 18 million dollars for the next handful of years? What a disaster of a team.
I wonder if the Bucs could trade some of the games against Milwaukee or St. Louis for more against the Cubs?
