30yo catchers are certainly a risk, but the cervelli extension seems like a pretty sweet deal for the pirates
over the five years of russell martin's jays contract, cervelli will be making less than half the money for what is (so far) better production
(he is babiped all to hell tho)

A friend of mine just gave me his mlb.tv password, so hopefully I'll be able to keep track again. Without the internet I'm pretty much blocked from following baseball. Just got offered a flat though, so in a month I'll be able to keep up.

with doubleheaders and shitty starters and one-day trips to colorado, they needed relievers. he should be back soon; only question is which of the non-cole starters he supplants

Pittsburgh Pirates starter Gerrit Cole exited Friday's start against the St. Louis Cardinals in the third inning due to right triceps tightness, the team announced.
He is being treated and will be re-examined on Saturday.

heard he has a wrist injury, but i dunno. it's pretty bad -- he's the pirates' fourth-best outfielder 60 games into the season
and considering he's only their third-best defensive outfielder, he shouldn't be playing center either

somehow i missed the news that polanco was extended a couple months ago. great move by the pirates, i really like him. he's tied in my mind to oscar taveras because they came up around the same time and had similar hitting profiles, i guess. for whatever reason he always reminds me of OT and for that reason alone i want him to be a HOF
