Third time at the plate for Rajai

Triple.

He's now a homerun away from The Cycle.

serenity now.

It's not Rajai Davis's fault that he's playing well for another team. Nor is it his fault that Matt Morris sucks.

No; I'd rather blame steroids.



p.s. After Vizquel tried to give himself up, AGAIN, Morris went on to walk him.

Fourth pitch from Morris

Over for a strike.

p.s. Rajai Davis just stole second.

For Rajai Davis; I hardly knew you

The AP reports that "The Pittsburgh Pirates acquired pitcher Matt Morris from San Francisco on Tuesday, an uncommon deal for a high-priced player by an out-of-contention team at the trading deadline."

The Giants were looking for a team to take some of their high-salaried players, and the Pirates will pick up the remainder of Morris' $10,037,283 contract for this season. He is due $9.5 million for next season, plus a $2 million payment at the end of the season.

"Almost at the 11th hour we were talking to two other teams I would consider competitors in the playoff situation. Pittsburgh stepped up, not only to take on the player as is -- meaning the contract -- but the potential return," in Davis, Sabean said.

"Morris and Izturis definitely improve our team, and are solid additions for us," Littlefield said. "We have not given up a lot as far as talent to get these type of players, and feel very comfortable they will be a big plus for us in the future."
