Prior to Sunday afternoon games, it’s typically quiet in the clubhouse, and today was no different. The Pirates bullpen, having been rocked by the White Sox for 14 runs over the last two nights, is unlikely to have Isaac Mattson (pitched Friday and Saturday) and Carmen Mlodzinski (44 pitches last night) available due to their usage. David Bednar and Dennis Santana haven't appeared in either game, so both should see action today, regardless of there being a lead or not. We'll have the Ben Cherington GM show in about an hour.
