With the Pirates at the halfway point of the 2008 season, I thought it would be a good time to assess which players have surprised us with their play. Some have been disappointments, while others have performed better than expected. You will not see Adam LaRoche in this post, as his numbers are [...]

This one featured offense from... well, just about everybody: Doug Mientkiewicz , Adam LaRoche , Nyjer Morgan , the trainer, the batboy, the vendor behind the backstop with the rad retro threads... Still, it was a minor miracle that the Yankees weren't able to make a game of this one, since Tom Gorzelanny seemed to give them every possible opportunity.

(Henry Blacno and Adam Laroche duck for cover as Kerry Wood throws his first deadly pitch in Pittsburgh) Pity the fan who has to depend on the listing Dodgers to beat the Cardinals so the Cubs, who lost again to the Pirates, 6-5 this afternoon, can maintain a half-game lead over St. Louis. Given [...]
