Thank God for the Steelers and the Penguins

So far this season, the Pittsburgh Pirates have traded all but three of their opening day starting position players and only one from last year. Nothing against the new guys - McCutchen is playing well and I do like Jones bat. If I were a betting man, which I'm not, I would bet that Ryan Doumit will be out of Pittsburgh before the deadline tomorrow.

Traded or gone since last season:

Good luck Freddy, Jack, Adam (traded again to Atlanta), John, Tommy, Ian, Nate, Nyger, Xavier, Jose, Ronny, and Jason.

My cousin thinks it is all a new marketing program by the Pirates to sell more programs at the stadium. I would not doubt it one bit.

Edited for corrections.
