Dog days of April

Yes, we have entered the dog days of April. Typically its the dog days of summer, but not when you are a Pirate fan. Anyway, despite the win last night, the slow start has put the entire Pirate blogosphere into a general malaise. Even Rowdy is barely averaging a post per day. The rest of the usual suspects are eerily quiet.

As for this space, I apologize for the lack of quality here since the season began. But there really is NOTHING interesting about this team. There just isn't. It's pointless to add to the 'fire Mac', 'this team can't hit', 'McClatchy is cheap' noise. And I have neither the patience nor the talent to invent some kind of angle that is worth a long thread.

So, what do we do? We wait for something interesting to happen and dream of the days of Bill freaking Landrum. Yes, it's that bad.

And don't tell me sending David Ross back to AAA is interesting. Yes it's going to happen this weekend. But no, it doesn't count.
