Sorry for the delay in posts that I said I would be doing 3 days ago,But no time like the present.Since we last talked about the Pirates,They were ahead in their game against the Reds the Bucs were winning that game.Well no thanks to John Van Benschoten,And alot of thanks to Denny Bautista the Pirates pulled out a 9-5 win to take 2 out of 3 from the Reds.Xavier Nady had 2 home runs,And Jose Bautista had another to help win for the Buccos.The Pirates would then head to play the Brewers,And so far that hasn't been a good series at all.On July 4Th the Bucs lost 9-1,With the only run coming off a Nady double.After the poor pitching performance continued for Tom Gorzelany,He was shipped to Indianapolis.And we get stuck with,According to Greg Brown,The pitcher with the worst ERA ever for his amount of starts, John Van Benschoten.Tell me how this is an option?He has been the worst starter they have pulled from AAA,But yet they just keep bringing him back.The Bucs actually had a very decent game Saturday night.Paul Maholm went 8 innings,Giving up 1 run on 4 hits,Striking out 6 Brewers and only walking 1!Tyler Yates allowed the winning run to score in the 9Th.Final score 2-1 Brewers.
When The Pittsburgh Penguins free agency period started,Alot of people thought that Marian Hossa would take the "hometown discount"and stay with the Pens,Wrong answer.I guess when he said I'll take a discount to play with a winner,He meant The Stanley Cup winner Detroit Red Wings,And yes he did take a discount in signing with them.2 players they kept around for the next few years,Goalie Marc-Andre Fleury,Who signed a 7 year deal.And RW Evgeni Malkin signed a 5 year deal.Some other news, The Penguins must have realized the upcoming season would be hard to win if they didn't work out a deal with the devil.On Thursday the Pens signed Satan,Miroslav Satan that is. 1 year deal,And hopes of Satan raising the cup as hell will freeze over!Speaking of Satan,Jaromir Jagr has signed with a Russian hockey team for 2 years.Ryan and I both said the same thing upon hearing of this signing.If he starts gambling like he did in the states,He will be found in a oil well in the middle of Siberia by the 2ND year of the contract.Be back later today with something not talked about alot on my blog, Wrestling..
