Quick Thoughts on Last Night's Pirates Game

• Could the Bucco debut of A.J Burnett been any better?
• Two more hits and two runs scored by Andrew McCutchen, who does not seem to be allowing that huge contract he signed affect him negatively.
• Will the two singles by Pedro Alvarez, one of them an infield hit, be the impetus he needs to get going?
• How about those K's in the eighth by Tony Watson and Jason Grilli?
• Here's hoping that Joel Hanrahan can make it just a little less dramatic in future appearances.
