I think the pitching advantage swings to the Bucco's side for games 2 & 3.
The Pirates have to find a way to keep Hamilton off the bases. Last season the dude hit .349 against the Pirates and .238 against the rest of the league. That is a ridiculous difference, and he creates so much havoc once he gets on.

Cole labored last night, and I feel like that's not unusual for him to start the season with some shaky starts. It may take him a few starts to really find his grove. He still did some impressive stuff like striking out the side with Billy Hamilton on base, but served up some fastballs too.
I was impressed with some of the bullpen guys last night, Caminero throws straight gas, Watson rebounded nicely, and Scahill had a nice inning of work.
The Bucs had 8 hits, but nobody had a multi-hit game, the Bucs drew 7 walks (2 intentional) and didn't take a low of advantage of all the base runners.
Here's to hoping they get one from Cincinnati today. Let's see what Burnett's got.

You think they let AJ leave early to get some sleep last night?
