Craig Monroe DFA'd by Pirates

[Jake]

Doesn't get any lower than that.

 

Steven Pearce is coming up.

 

The statements say it's more about bringing Pearce up than cutting Monroe.

 

But, let's face it. Monroe's main job was as a Pinch Hitter, and he was 0-14 in that role.

 

Yawn.

Is Pearce even considered a prospect anymore? And yeah, Monroe's basically finished.

Lack of hustle gets one cut.

Dont even think about it Hendry.

Jake, what do you think about Charlie Morton?

[Jake]

Not sure yet. I'd like to see him pitch someplace other than Coors.

 

His numbers seem to indicate that he's turned some sort of corner this year.

 

And, let's face it. He's replacing Jeff Karstens in our rotation. How bad can he be ?

Jake, you will love Pearce. He played his college ball down here and is a good kid w/a lot of potential.
