Sorry, but I really don't know how to go about doing this or even if I should. After 19 consecutive losing seasons it's difficult to get any emotion behind praising the Pittsburgh Pirates for their, thus far, "winning" season. My expectations are that they will fall flat on their faces and yet again finish below .500. I've been suckered-in by them more than a few times in the past two decades and don't wish it to happen again. So I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that they won't finish LAST in their division. That's all I can allow myself for now.
