It's stupid, it's senseless...
So let's get this straight, the Pirates have decided to give the guy with the 8.00+ ERA that couldn't even make it out of the second inning in his last start one more go at things. Fine, it's early in the season, whatever. Van Benschoten isn't getting any younger in AAA, but give Armas one more shot. I can almost understand that. But then... hot damn Armas is 3-12 with a 5.98 career ERA against the Marlins. I understand that the Marlins flip their roster around like once every two years, but Armas clearly is afraid of the color teal. Is there any doubt how this game is going to turn out tonight? Any at all?
