I’m hoping Yanier is in the starting lineup. He only has around 10-12 ABs this season so far. The kid can hit. He just needs consistent playing time.

I'd like to see Julks get some more ABs too. I don't think he has a future with us really, but he could have some trade value. Now is the chance to give him a really good look.
Chas CF Bregman 3B Yordan DH Abreu 1B Tucker RF Julks LF Pena SS Diaz C Hensley 2B
Although, Dubon is a little hot right now surprisingly...

Pirates actually have some good arms in development. If the offense goes in overconfident things could be ugly.

Through the first 10 games....
Team OPS+: 90 Team ERA+: 117
The pitching is starting to come around. 4/5 starters and our 4 primary relievers are all in the well above-average to excellent range.
However, our offense is still low. Top offensive players based on OPS+:
Yordan: 167 Tucker: 160 Chas: 139 Dubon: 101 Abreu: 98 Pena: 90 Julks: 77 Hensley: 49 Maldonado: 38 Bregman: 19

Lineup:

Not a bad lineup considering the recent hot streaks of Julks and Dubon. It would have been nice to get Diaz another game after the good start yesterday... We just really need Bregman to get going and Abreu to show a bit more power.

Well we sure didn't take advantage of that wildness. One is better than none though.

Now that was a pretty first inning.

Good start sans the base running.

I don't expect Pena to walk much, but he's a strong guy that I expect good power numbers from.

Julks hit that 104mph. Very nice
And Dubon continues to shut us all up.

I don't like the bunt there but a single brings in two...

Come on Yordan. Do your thing!

Bregman quickly improving his walk rates. 8 pitches seen 8 balls.

Yordan is a beefier Moises Alou.

Come on Framber. Just let that be the only run you give up.

What’s with Maldy’s catching?

Calm down, Framber...

Julks and Dubon are far exceeding expectations.
