Sagittal band injuries typically take 6 weeks to heal followed by 6 weeks of physical therapy to regain full strength and mobility. He's done for the season. #Pirates#Letsgobucs
ROSTER MOVES: Today we placed INF Konnor Griffin (left hand ring finger sagittal band injury) on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to Monday (July 6), and recalled INF Jack Brannigan from Triple-A Indianapolis.
Historically teams who load the bases with no outs in an inning score at least 1 run 80% of the time.
EIGHTY
the #pirates have 0 runs in THREE chances today.
Some perspective on the #Pirates free-falling season.
Since 1980, there have been a total of 591 teams that have been below .500 on June 16.
29 of them made the postseason, that's just under 5% of all teams.
@Pirates are in trouble. #LetsGoBucs
Assuming 88 wins gets you a wild card, the #Pirates now must win EVERY SERIES the rest of the way to get there. I hope I'm wrong, but I think it might be over kids. Cya for spring training 2028 after the lockout. #LetsGoBucs
The fourth no-hitter in franchise history belongs to Kobe Foster as we dominate the Jackals to open the series.

#GoWild
I think #Pirates fans need to pump the brakes a little on all the Chandler hate...remember, it took Mitch Keller several seasons to finally figure it out...and he turned out just fine. #LetsGoBucs
Let's do a little crazy math on the #Pirates
They're 24-22...assuming to earn the final wild card, they need 88 wins. That's 64 wins the rest of the way.
Go get there, they would need to win 31 of their final 36 series. That's 2 of 3 and 3 of 4.
Might be getting late early.
The #Pirates have played the toughest schedule in baseball so far according to ESPN and are 4 games over .500...not bad.
The rest of the division...
#Cubs: 6th toughest
#STLCardinals: 8th toughest
#Brewers: 10th toughest
#Reds 21st toughest.
Remaining strength of schedule...
Crazy stat of the day: The #Pirates earned their 21st win of the season Thursday in Arizona.
It took them until May 28th to do it last season...oddly enough, also on the road in Arizona. I'm sure @JMackey_PGH can break down how insanely rare that is. #letsgobucs
Not buying this...#Cubs have, to their credit, taken advantage of a VERY soft schedule. Only 4 of their last 8 series have been against winning teams. And they dropped two of those series (vs. #Pirates & #Dodgers)
An unseasonably cold pattern is favored across most of the central and eastern US end of April into early May. Possible much below normal temperatures and near freezing low temperatures across parts of the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes region could damage early blooming crops.

@RobertSuhr says this about what sparked his interest in meteorology, "I woke up in March of 1993 at home in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with two feet of snow on the ground."

Not trying to be a buzz kill here, but just three years ago the #Pirates started 20-8…then went 56-78 the rest of the way. I want to get excited…i’ve just been hurt too many times in the past. I need to wait until Memorial Day to truly gauge their team. #Letsgobucs
If I'm the #Pirates...I'm getting Ozuna to the eye doctor, like, tomorrow. Maybe this is another Tommy Pham wrong prescription deal. Dude looks totally lost out there. #LetsGoBucs
Cincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene, who was expected to be the team's ace this season, will have an arthroscopic procedure Wednesday to remove bone chips from his right elbow and is not expected to return until July. https://t.co/h8MdKOatnC
