A very Pirates postseason
The last year the Pirates had to worry about a postseason ticket policy, Bryce Harper was born in October.
The Pirates play six of their next nine against the Brewers, one of six NL teams that is actually worse than the Phillies. In September, they have a stretch where 11 out of 14 games are against the Cubs or Padres, two teams who just played each other for three games and were unable to generate a more compelling storyline than this.
Either the Pirates are finishing over .500, and making the playoffs, or they are about to embark upon the most unfathomable implosion the world has ever seen.
