Welcome back, friends. In baseball, moments of plenty can be followed by moments of … not so much plenty. The Pirates scored 17 runs against Andrew McCutchen and the San Francisco Giants on Friday and Saturday, and then were shut out by McCutchen and those same Giants on Sunday. But faithful mailbag followers, your days of plenty never wane! Thanks for the great questions. If you have more, tweet me @BloomPG or email ebloom@post-gazette.com.
@docjuanna: Trying to figure out what future holds for Osuna. Kid deserves to play in majors, but now with Kang sighting, seems even more unlikely even tho we were prepping him on 3rd.
