I’m going to be blunt: Watching Brian Burres pitch against a team that needs to win to clinch a playoff spot seems like an awesome way to have your Labor Day ruined. The Pirates certainly aren’t playing well right now (like they ever are) and the Braves are locked into a pennant race and most teams (the Cardinals excepted) are in pennant races because they can beat teams like the Pirates.
Tommy Hanson and Brian Burres take the mound at 1:35 today. Enjoy the holiday and check back tomorrow for more regularly scheduled WHYGAVS post. Clemente/Cangelosi is after the jump.
Not sure what this is? Check here and here. Short version: in the comments pick the Pirates you think will be most and least valuable in today’s game. If you haven’t jumped aboard yet, it’s been a lot of fun so far and now’s as good a time as any to join in.
Working on the update right now.
