QUOTE OF THE DAY: "If you can't laugh at yourself, then you've got problems." - Pirates pitcher A.J. Burnett on the doctored online photos of him serving as the team's new logo. Burnett returned to Bradenton on Saturday a little more than a week after undergoing surgery to fix a fractured bone around his right eye.
