Frazier?

Why hasn't Adam played in the last 4 to 5 games? Figured he had to be banged up or something.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Don't know. Last game he played he went 2-4. They have played 3 games since without him getting in the lineup.

Not to be an ass, but Adam isn't a starter and unless a Lefty PH is needed, Adam will be riding the pine. He has done great though, in his limited opportunities.

[klong-dog]

Right, it has been just 3 games. Guess I was use to him at least getting a PH ab since he's been called up. He's been great since the call up, that's why I asked if anyone knew something different. I'd love to see him being an every day guy but that doesn't look like it's happening with the Pirates anytime soon.

[RAYn_Man]

He'll probably start today.

[Tbonewannabe]

He is hitting above 300 since getting called up. He is doing what he needs to do to stay up.

[klong-dog]

No one said he wasn't. That's what is mind boggling to me. He's hit so well and played good D that I can't believe he hasn't had any ab's, this would be the 4th straight game.

[biggun]

He is in now due to an injury to starter

[oildawg]

I was wondering the same thing.... doesn't make sense... But, he got in today. Wasn't a good day for him - he went 0 for 2 with 2 strikeouts (on a total of 7 pitches). But he is still batting 0.356 (16 hits in 45 at bats).

[klong-dog]

Yeah the 2nd K he got rung up to the end the game on a check swing, which he argued with the ump as did the Pirates coach and a couple other players. I think they assumed the home plate ump should have warranted a check from the 3rd base ump.
