Here's a crazy fact ... the Pirates have won all 7 games that Jenmar Gomez has started this year.

He was a huge underdog on a couple of occasions.

Still, I can't believe he is only a +140 underdog against King Felix in Seattle today.

If a Jenmar Gomez VS King Felix match-up in Seattle happened at the start of the year, Seattle would have been about a huge favorite.

They'd be tough to take against Hernandez today at only a +140, really depending on what the starting lineups look like with it being a day game after a night game today...who's going to be sitting, if anyone's getting a few extra days rest with it being an off day tomorrow. I know they tried to give both McCutchen and Martin off Sunday but ended up using both of them in that wild win against the Angels.

With Gomez just coming off the DL for the forearm after that bad start he had against Cincy last out where he gave up like 4 runs in one inning of work...he seems kind of shaky even against a light hitting team like the Mariners. It'd be nice though to sweep the 5 game road series against the AL West.

Pirates win again! 18 games over .500 now.

Just a half game behind St. Louis for the best record in all of baseball.

Nice outing by Gomez and it was obvious the Pirates had no intentions of resting anyone, big time sweep of the AL West on the road. Twelve of their next fifteen games at home.
