The Pirates are coming down the stretch now and it is beginning to look like the Pirates will be in the playoffs again. They will probably win over 90 games and still not win the division. They may not even be the first wild card as that is still in the air and a reason to play hard through September. The Cubs are hot, and the Pirates are much better at home, so that top wild card spot is enormous.
Who the Pirates will bring up is an interesting question. Every team wants some more arms and the Pirates will surely do that.
