Manager Report Power rankings and week in review
Pirates improved to a 4-1 weekly record, best of our season so far. Our power rankings improved to #18 from #23, so that's good too. Our pitching improved dramatically this week, especially against the Padres, the offense wasn't slouching either.
I made my picks for the All Star teams, generally I chose the top WAR rating for each position. 1B Josh Bell was the top WAR player at 1B position, so it was NOT a "homer" pick. I didn't pick Chris Archer, although I wanted to... too many other players are having better seasons.
We now go back on the road for two tough series, first up the Houston Astros followed by a weekend series at Milwaukee.
