Bucs Dugout Podcast

In this episode: an interview with Sam Dingman of Baltimorons about the beauty and pain of following a losing baseball team. (I also recently did an interview for Sam's podcast, and as I mention, his podcast is very funny, and I recommend you check it out.) Also, David and I discuss the demotion of Alex Presley, the return of Evan Meek and other recent events surrounding the Pirates.

This week features David and I chatting with Wilbur Miller in an extra-long episode about the Pirates' minor leagues, beginning with the Bucs' 40-man roster, then heading to West Virginia and moving up through the system from there.

A smorgasbord this time: Updates on Jeff Karstens and Chris Leroux; a look ahead at Adam LaRoche, the Bryce Harper / Cole Hamels story, and the Washington Nationals in general; Charlie Morton's mechanics; the Pirates' lack of walks; and Jose Tabata and Pirates basestealing.

Episode No. 10 of the Bucs Dugout Podcast features an interview with Baseball Nation's Rob Neyer about the current state of the Pirates and about goings-on around baseball. David and I also discuss last night's game, the demotion of Evan Meek, and the state of the Pirates' farm system.
