Pittsburgh Pirates MLB Betting
In June, the Pittsburgh Pirates accomplished what most said was impossible. Pittsburgh held the National League Central division league. But at the end of the month, they were swept by the division rival Milwaukee Brewers. Since then, the Pirates have been in their customary role as a sub-.500 team. The Pirates defied the gravity of a weak bullpen and unreliable run production. They are more likely to keep going down than to rise back up.
