Pirates are 35-40, in last place, and host the Cubs, who are 35-37 and 3.5 games out of first. Harden and Duke at seven.

Greinke and maybe some Morton at one. At 35-39, the Pirates are still in the cellar.

Chen and Maholm at seven. Bucs are 34-39 after a three-game win streak. Still in the cellar and somehow only five games out of first place. ...

Meche and Vasquez, in his debut, at seven.

Pavano and Duke at seven.

Huff and Snell at seven.

Finally got around to reading Wilbur Miller's analysis of the draft. I've been looking forward to it since draft day. And I look for...

Maholm vs. De La Rosa and a man who I use the phrase "Jim Tracy" to describe at three.

Charlie Morton vs. Jason Hammel at eight. Monroe has been designated for assignment, and Pearce called up.

Ohlendorf vs. Marquis and Jim Tracy at nine. If you're not entertained by that, try Wilbur's 2009 draft notes .

Duke and Blackburn at one. Until then there's Cutch's first jack .

Ian Snell vs. the mound, his teammates, his coaches, Randy Marsh, and the entire world, which includes Francisco Liriano.

Maholm vs. Perkins at eight. The Twins are 32-33 and in second place. With the Brewers win yesterday, this is a must-win game for the Bucs.

Four games out , the Bucs have the day off to rest up for their inevitable World Series surge. Playoff odds at 10%.
