Do you know who Great Paulino is? I want to find a picture for him.

And yeah...

Kearns has been a good pickup so far.

Pirates win! Pirates win! 1st place Pirates! Woohooo!

The entire Pirates team went out to a local pub and celebrated their victory against the Reds last night, making them for the first time, first in the NL Central this year.

Players of the Game:

Xavier Nady
Image
He hit the go ahead grandslam in the ninth, allowing the Pirates to win.

Chris Duffy
Image
Went back-to-back with Nady after being called in to pitch hit for a struggling to make contact Kearns.

Pitchers:

Paul Maholm
Image
He almost became to the second Pirates pitcher this year to pitch a no hitter, but he was pulled out in the seventh after fanning seven batters.

Matt Capps
Image
Matt Capps came in after Maholm was pulled out. He gave up four runs, but had tremendous offensive support that let him come away with the win after striking out only one batter.

------

Josh Fog
Image
Will be the starter for the Reds in the third game of this series.

He'll verse a powerful

Zach Duke on the mound.
Image
Zach Duke already has a perfect game under his belt this year. He's looking to make history and get a second today. Will he make it?

Players to look out for:

Zach Duke
Image
He promises he'll make history yet again...

It probably can as long as they don't die like mine...
But, not to say that stevenjackson or Me_and_lucy's are bad cause thats not the case, they're good franchise logs to follow and are fun to watch. But I have a feeling I'm gonna like this one because of the fact that it's not a first-place teams and cause it has real teams

Yeah, when I get too far ahead I simulate a month and then try to get back up. I only play two-three series a month, as you can see. :P

Are there any other big trades that could happen in the future?

I'm bursting with suggestions too.
And j-Gao hasn't been on since like December(It says February in this pro but before than he wasn't on til december) so no wonder you passed him. In the past 4 weeks I've moved by 100's of members and I'm close to 1000 for this month

And whos playing left field Dr. K and another suggestion is player Doumit at first base,
Pirates players play so many positions! Nady, Sanchez, Bautista, McClouth, Kearns, Doumit, Chris Gomez and etc can play alot of postions combined

Cody Ross is playing LF.

What suggestions do any of you have? I have an open mind. Doumit is on the bench, backing up for Paulino. I can get an OF, Juan Rivera, for him.
