Them's Pirates got moxie

Pirates Manager Jim Tracy said the following to describe Ian Snell's five scoreless innings of spring training ball yesterday:

"He had good sink, and his moxie was way up there."

Not that outlandish, but in my book, anyone who unironically uses olde tyme expressions to describe actual things is instantly my favorite human being.

As long as the Buccos keep Chris Duffy on the trolley and Salomon Torres keeps his gatsby out of the giggle water, it could be a cat's pajamas of a wowzamadoo for the Pirates in aught seven.
