Buccos on TV
The first spring game of the year is on TV today with the Pirates Opening Day lineup minus Jason Bay playing about half (the lesser half it appears) of the Red Sox regulars. Ryan Vogelsong may have had a chance to capitalize on Victor Santos' bad outing yesterday, but that chance has already passed him by as he's given up four runs in the first two innings and is generally just getting beaten all over the park. The race for the fifth rotation spot looks like it's going to come down to who does less to hurt their status this spring, as opposed to someone actually pitching well enough to earn it.
