2011 MLB Preview: Pittsburgh Pirates


Offense:
1 CF Andrew McCutchen
2 LF Jose Tabata
3 2B Neil Walker
4 3B Pedro Alvarez
5 1B Lyle Overbay
6 RF Garrett Jones
7 C Chris Snyder
8 SS Ronny CedeƱo

I just threw up all over the place. Their are some promising pieces in the Pirates organization with Andrew McCutchen who could be a potential star and Pedro Alvarez could be a great clean up hitter. Neil Walker and Jose Tabata were decent in their rookie years. Progression should be the reason why this line up is a little better then last year.

Pitching:
1 RHP James McDonald
2 RHP Kevin Correia
3 LHP Paul Maholm
4 RHP Ross Ohlendorf
5 LHP Scott Olsen
CL: Joel Hanrahan

I'm really sick now. This is just awful. It’s a bit scary the No. 1 guy in the rotation is James McDonald, who was all of 4-6 last year with a 4.02 ERA. McDonald has thrown 140 2/3 innings in his major league career. There was a time that I thought Scott Olsen was going to be very good, however, he may not win the 5th start.

Overall:
Yuck

61- 101
