Giants

The Giants' offense has struggled early in 2007

The Pirates welcome the San Francisco Giants to town this weekend for three games. It is quite possible that neither team will score a single run in this series. The Giants have already been shut out three times this season, including twice in their three-game series with San Diego earlier this week. The Pirates are fresh off three games with St. Louis in which they produced only four runs in 30 innings. If you're someone who watches baseball mostly for the offense, you might want to avoid the Pirates for a few days.

I will be out of town with no access to the internet for the weekend, and most likely will not provide any posts during this series. So if you're one of the four people that check this site for recaps and analysis, try out some of the more interesting Pirates blogs linked in the sidebar. I will be back in a few days.

Let's bring home three wins.
