■ Allround blade, designed to cover a window of applications with a very good performace. ■ All blades feature the sandwich design. This helps them blade to retain their shape ensuring superior cutting speed and maximum utilisation of the full segment height. ■ Unique segment design optimises cooling and disposal of slurry.
Diagrip™ is a revolutionary new technology for producing diamond segments. The diamonds have a special treatment that ensures an optimal distribution. Also, the diamonds are held in the segment for longer, so they are utilised maximally. The result is blades with superior cutting capacity, longer life and a smooth, rapid cut.
Low noise wall saw blades: The core is a spot-welded, three-layer sandwich design with a copper centre. Compared to a standard solid core, the noise level is reduced from approx. 95 to approx. 85 dB. (However this figure may vary due to cutting depth, blade diameter etc. With continuous noise, a 10 dB drop represents a halving of the perceived noise.)
The design of the segments promotes the efficient cooling of the segments and steel plates, and helps to dispose of the abrasive saw sludge. This provides extremely good cutting properties and long service life.
The design of the segments is based on power being concentrated to a very small contact surface between the segment and the material to be sawn. This results in a tool that starts in a smooth, controlled manner when you first apply the blade, and that is optimally free-cutting for the duration of its service life.

National Flip Flop Day
Wear Flip Flops. Have Fun. Give Back.
Every year on the third Friday in June, Tropical Smoothie Café celebrates National Flip Flop Day, when we raise funds to benefit for our national charity partner, Camp Sunshine. Our 2014 National Flip Flop Day was another great success! Thanks to the generosity of our customers, we exceeded our goal of raising over 600 thousand dollars for Camp Sunshine!
But we don't do it alone. Donations made online or in a café make a real difference in the lives of the children and families that attend Camp Sunshine. Thank you to everyone who donated this year, whether it was online, in café or on National Flip Flop Day. Many deserving families will now have the opportunity to experience the magic that is Camp Sunshine. Giving back feels good, and it tastes great too!
Sure, Tropical Smoothie Café loves flip flops so much that we've created a national holiday to celebrate the shoe. But National Flip Flop Day is much more than that. What started as a day to thank our customers for their loyalty to Tropical Smoothie Café has turned into a mission to raise money for Camp Sunshine. Camp Sunshine is a very special place because it's the only retreat in the nation to address the effects of a life threatening illness on members of the immediate family – the parents and siblings – as well as the ill children.
About Camp Sunshine
National Flip Flop Day may be over, but Camp Sunshine needs your support year round. Within its beautiful grounds, children with life-threatening illnesses and their families are invited to make magical memories together, surrounded by professionals dedicated to giving them the emotional and medical support they need. In fact, they're the only organization committed to addressing the impact that these illnesses have not just on the child who is ill, but on the entire family as well. To see how big of a difference just a week of camp can make or to make a donation, click here.
Wow! Thanks to your generosity, we've exceeded our 2014 goal! That's Flip Flop Fabulous!
Take It From the Families.
Each year, Camp Sunshine offers countless families the opportunity to put aside the stress and seriousness of having a child with a life-threatening illness and just have fun. It costs $2,000 a week for a family to attend Camp Sunshine, but thanks to the compassion of people like you, these families are able to attend COMPLETELY FREE OF CHARGE.

Informal Guide
When using the Java programming language most executable code is enclosed in either static class methods or instance methods. (Code can also be enclosed in constructors, initializers, and initialization expressions, but those aren't important here.) A method encloses code within curly brackets and assigns that block of code a method name. All such methods must be defined inside of a class of some type. For example, if you were to write a method that returned the square of any integer it may look like this:
Now in order to use the square() method you need to reference the class and the method by name as follows:
You can do the same thing in Groovy, but in groovy you can alternatively define the code without having to declare a class and a method as follows:
In Groovy, this anonymous code block is referred to as a closure definition (see the Formal Guide section below for a more elaborate definition of terms). A closure definition is one or more program statements enclosed in curly brackets. A key difference between a closure and method is that closures do not require a class or a method name.
As you can see, the executable code is the same except you didn't need to declare a class or assign the code a method name. While illustrative, the previous example is not all that useful because there is no way to use that closure once its created. It has no identifier (method name) so how can you call it? To fix that you assign the closure to a variable when it's created. You can than treat that variable as the identifier of the closure and make calls on it.
The following shows the square()
method re-written as a closure:
What is really nice about closures is that you can create a closure, assign it to a variable, and then pass it around your program like any other variable. At first this seems a bit, well useless, but as you learn more about Groovy you'll discover that closures are used all over the place.
As an example, let's extend the java.util.Vector
class from Java by adding a single method that allows you to apply a closure to every element in the vector. My new class, GVector, looks as follows:
The apply()
method takes a closure as an input parameter. For each element in the GVector
, the closure is called passing in the element. The resulting value is then used to replace the element. The idea is that you can modify the contents of the GVector
in place using a closure which takes each element and converts into something else.
Now we can call our new apply()
method with any closure we want. For example, we will create a new GVector
, populate it with some elements, and pass in the closure we created earlier, the one that squares an integer value.
Because the apply() method on the GVector can be used with any closure, you can use any closure. For example, the following uses a closure that simply prints out the item its passed.
If you were to run the above script, assuming GVector
from earlier is on your classpath, the output would look like this:
In addition to assigning closures to variables, you can also declare them directly as arguments to methods. For example, the above code could be re-written in the following manner:
This example accomplishes the same thing as the first, but the closure is defined directly as an argument to the apply method of GVector.
The other important difference of a closure to a normal method is that a closure can refer to variables from the scope in which it is called (in fact this is where this language construct gets its name). Here is an example:
In this example, the closure block "{{{ e -> e.salary > threshold }}}" refers to the threshold
variable defined in the highPaid()
method. The example also used a closure to create the emps
Closures vs. Code Blocks
A closure looks a lot like a regular Java or Groovy code block, but actually it's not the same. The code within a regular code block (whether its a method block, static block, synchronized block, or just a block of code) is executed by the virtual machine as soon as it's encountered. With closures the statements within the curly brackets are not executed until the call() is made on the closure. In the previous example the closure is declared in line, but it's not executed at that time. It will only execute if the call() is explicitly made on the closure. This is an important differentiator between closures and code blocks. They may look the same, but they are not. Regular Java and Groovy blocks are executed the moment they are encountered; closures are only executed if the call() is invoked on the closure.
Formal Guide
A closure in Groovy is an anonymous chunk of code that may take arguments, return a value, and reference and use variables declared in its surrounding scope. In many ways it resembles anonymous inner classes in Java, and closures are often used in Groovy in the same way that Java developers use anonymous inner classes. However, Groovy closures are much more powerful than anonymous inner classes, and far more convenient to specify and use.
In functional language parlance, such an anonymous code block might be referred to as an anonymous lambda expression if it didn't contain references to unbound variables (like threshold
in the earlier example) and a closure expression if it did. Groovy makes no such distinction.
Syntax for Defining a Closure
A closure definition follows this syntax:
Where [closureArguments->] is an optional comma-delimited list of arguments, and statements are 0 or more Groovy statements. The arguments look similar to a method's parameter list, and these arguments may be typed or untyped. When a parameter list is specified, the -> character is required and serves to seperate the arguments from the closure body. The statements portion consists of 0, 1, or many Groovy statements.
Some examples of valid closure definitions:
++++ Note: The examples could definitely be made more real-life MWS
Closure semantics
Closures appear to be a convenient mechanism for defining something like an inner classs, but the semantics are in fact more powerful and subtle than what an inner class offers. In particular, the properties of closures can be summarized in this manner:
- They have one implicit method (which is never specified in a closure definition) called doCall()
- A closure may be invoked via the call() method, or with a special syntax of an unnamed () invocation. Either invocation will be translated by Groovy into a call to the Closure's doCall() method.
- Closures may have 1...N arguments, which may be statically typed or untyped. The first parameter is available via an implicit untyped argument named it if no explicit arguments are named. If the caller does not specify any arguments, the first parameter (and, by extension, it) will be null.
- The developer does not have to use it for the first parameter. If they wish to use a different name, they may specify it in the parameter list.
- Closures always return a value. This may occur via either an explicit return statement, or as the value of the last statement in the closure body (e.g. an explicit return statement is optional).
- A closure may reference any variables defined within its enclosing lexical scope. Any such variable is said to be bound to the closure
- Any variables bound to a closure are available to the closure even when the closure is returned outside of the enclosing scope.
- Closures are first class objects in Groovy, and are always derived from the class Closure. Code which uses closures may reference them via untyped variables or variables typed as Closure.
- The body of a closure is not executed until it is explicitly invoked e.g. a closure is not invoked at its definition time
- A closure may be curried so that one a copy the closure is made with one or more of its parameters fixed to a constant value
These properties are explained further in the following sections.
Closures are anonymous
Closures in Groovy are always represented as anonymous blocks. Unlike a Java or Groovy class, you cannot have a named closure. You may however reference closures using untyped variables or variables of type Closure, and pass such references as method arguments and arguments to other closures.
Implicit method.
Closures are considered to have one implicitly defined method, which corresponds to the closure's arguments and body. You cannot override or redefine this method. This method is always invoked by the call() method on the closure, or via the special unnamed () syntax. The implicit method name is doCall().
Closure Arguments
A closure always has at least one argument, which will be available within the body of the closure via the implicit parameter it if no explicit parameters are defined. The developer never has to declare the it variable - like the this parameter within objects, it is implicitly available.
If a closure is invoked with zero arguments, then it will be null.
Explicit closure arguments may be specified by the developer as defined in the syntax section. These arguments are a list of 1 or more argument names which are comma seperated. The parameter list is terminated with a -> character. Each of these arguments may be specified "naked" e.g. without a type, or with an explicit static type. If an explicit parameter list is specified, then the it variable is not available.
For arguments that have a declared type, this type will be checked at runtime. If a closure invocation has 1 or more arguments which do not match the declared argument type(s), then an exception will be thrown at runtime. Note that this argument type checking always occurs at runtime; there is no static type checking involved, so the compiler will not warn you about mis-matched types.
Groovy has special support for excess arguments. A closure may be declared with its last argument of type Object[]. If the developer does this, any excess arguments at invocation time are placed in this array. This can be used as a form of support for variable numbers of arguments. For example:
Both invocations of c are valid. Since the closure defines two arguments (format and args) and the last argument is of type Object[], the first parameter in any call to c will be bound to the format argument and the remaining parameters will be bound to the args argument. In the first call of c the closure will receive the parameter args with 2 elements ("two", "three") while the format parameter will contain the string "one". In the second call the closure will receive the parameter args with no elements and the format parameter will contain the string "1".
++++ What Exception is thrown? MWS
Closure Return Value
Closures always have a return value. The value may be specified via one or more explicit return statement in the closure body, or as the value of the last executed statement if returnis not explicitly specified. If the last executed statement has no value (for example, if the last statement is a call to a void method), then null is returned.
There is currently no mechanism for statically declaring the return type of a closure.
References to External Variables
Closures may reference variables external to their own definition. This includes local variables, method parameters, and object instance members. However, a closure may only reference those variables that the compiler can lexically deduce from the physical location of the closure definition within the source file.
Some examples might serve to clarify this. The following example is valid and shows a closure using a method's local variables and a method parameter:
The above code will print out:
Looking at the definition of class A, the closure inside of publicMethodhas access to all variables that publicMethod may legally access. This is true whether the variables are local variables, parameters, instance members, or method invocations.
When a closure references variables in this way, they are bound to the closure. At the same time, the variables are still available normally to the enclosing scope, so the closure may read/change any such values, and code from the outer scope may read/change the same variables.
If such a closure is returned from its enclosing scope, the variables bound with the closure also live on. This binding occurs when the closure is instantiated. If an object method or instance member is used within a closure, then a reference to that object is stored within the closure. If a local variable or parameter is referenced, then the compiler re-writes the local variable or parameter reference so that the local variable or parameter is taken off the stack and stored in an heap based object.
It's important to keep in mind that these references only are ever allowed according to the lexical structure available to the compiler (in this case, the A class). This process does not occur dynamically by looking at the call stack. So the following will not work:
The above code is similar to the first example, except that we now have a class B which dynamically instantiates an object of type Aand then calls A.publicMethod(). However, in this code the closure within publicMethod() is trying to reference a member from B, and this is not allowed since the compiler cannot statically determine that this is available. Some older languages allowed this sort of reference to work, by dynamically examining the call stack at runtime, but this is disallowed in Groovy.
Groovy supports the special owner variable which can be used when a closure argument is hiding an object member variable. For example:
In the above code the println (name) call is referencing the parameter name. If the closure needs to access the name instance variable of class HiddenMember, it can use the owner variable to indicate this:
The Closure Type
All closures defined in Groovy are derived from the type Closure. Each unique closure definition with a Groovy program creates a new unique class which extends Closure. If you wish the specify the type of a closure in a parameter, local variable, or object member instance, then you should use the Closure type.
The exact type of a closure is not defined unless you are explicitly subclasses the Closure class. Using this example:
The exact type of the closure referenced by c is not defined, we know only that it is a subclass of Closure.
Closure creation and invocation
Closures are created implicitly when their surrounding scope encounters them. For example, in the following code two closures are created:
In the above example, closureVar holds a reference to a different closure object than closureVar2. Closures are always implicitly created in this manner - you cannot new a closure programmatically.
Closures may be invoked using one of two mechanisms. The explict mechanism is to use the call() method:
You may also use the implict nameless invocation approach:
If you are looking at the Closure javadoc, you may notice that the call method within the Closure class is defined as:
Despite this method signature, you do not have to manually write code to turn parameters into the Object[] array. Instead, invocations use the normal method argument syntax, and Groovy converts such calls to use an object array:
Both calls above are legal Groovy. However, if you are dealing with a Closure from Java code you will need to create the Object[] array yourself
Fixing Closure Arguments to Constant Values Via Currying
You can fix the values for one or more arguments to a closure instance using the curry() method from the Closuretype. In fact, this action is often referred to as currying in functional programming circles, and the result is generally referred to as a Curried Closure. Curried closures are very useful for creating generic closure definitions, and then creating several curried versions of the original with differing parameters bound to them.
When the curry() method is called on a closure instance with one or more arguments, a copy of the closure is first made. The incoming arguments are then bound permanently to the new closure instance so that the parameters 1..N to the curry() call are bound to the 1..N parameters of the closure. The new curried closure is then returned the caller.
Callers to the new instance will have their invocation parameters bound to the new closure in the N+1 parameter position of the original closure.
A simple example of this would be:
The above code defines a closure c, and then calls c.curry("foo"). This returns a curried closure with the arg1 value permanently bound to the value "foo". On the invocation d("bar"), the "bar" parameter comes into the closure in the arg2 argument. The resulting output would be foo bar.
See also: Functional Programming
Special Case: Passing Closures to Methods
Groovy has a special case for defining closures as method arguments to make the closure syntax easier to read. Specifically, if the last argument of a method is of type Closure, you may invoke the method with an explicit closure block outside of the parenthesis. For example, if a class has a method:
Then you may invoke each() with a closure definition outside of the parenthesis:
The more traditional syntax is also available, and also note that in Groovy you can elide parenthesis in many situations, so these two variations are also legal:
The same rule applies even if the method has other arguments. The only restriction is that the Closure argument must be last:
This syntax is only allowed when explicitly defining a closure within the method call. You cannot do this with a variable of type closure, as this example shows:
When you are not defining a closure inline to a method call, you cannot use this syntax and must use the more verbose syntax:
Comparing Closures to Anonymous Inner Classes
Groovy includes closures because they allow the developer to write more concise and more easily understood code. Where Java developers may use single-method interfaces (Runnable, the Command pattern) combined with anonymous inner classes, Groovy allows you to accomplish the same sort of tasks in a less verbose manner. In addition, closures have fewer constraints than anonymous inner classes and include extra functionality.
Most closures are relatively short, isolated, and anonymous snippets of code that accomplish one specific job. Their syntax is streamlined to make closure definitions very short and easy to read without additional clutter. For example, in Java code you might see code like this for an imaginary GUI system:
The same code in Groovy would look like this:
The Groovy code accomplishes the same task but is much clearer and without extra syntactical clutter. This is the first
rule of Groovy closures - closures are trivially easy to write. In addition, closures may reference any variables in its outer
defining scope without the restrictions of anonymous inner classes - in particular, such variables do not need to be final.
Closures also carry their state around with them, even when they reference local variables and parameters. Closures may also take advantage of Groovy's optional dynamic typing so that you don't have to statically declare all of your closure arguments or return types (in fact, a Groovy closure can take varying numbers of parameters from invocation to invocation).
What Groovy closures lack compared to an approach using Command-like interfaces is the level of static typing involved. A Java interface rigidly enforces what type of objects can be used and the method(s) that may be called in it. In Groovy, all closures type equally as Closure and type checking of arguments (if specified in the closure definition) is deferred until Runtime.
Closures as map keys and values
It's possible to put closures in a map, both as keys and values.

You can use a closure as a key. However, when putting it into the map you must "escape" it (as you would any other identifier you don't want treated as a string) by enclosing it in parens, like so:
When accessing the value of the closure in the map you must use get(f) or m[f] as m.f will treat f as a string.
Closures as values
You can use a closure as a value. When invoking it though you must parenthesize the access, else it's treated as a call to a method on the map. If you don't like this syntax you might opt for using an Expando.
Extending groovy with the use directive
You can provide your own specialized methods supporting closures by implementing a Java class containing such methods. These methods must be static and contain at least two parameters. The first parameter to the method must be the type on which the method should operate, and the last parameter must be a Closure type.
Consider the example below, which is a variant of the eachFile method which simply ignores files, and just prints the directories within the dir object on which the method operates.
Take note of the use() directive. This will tell groovy where the eachDir method is implemented. Below is the Java code required to support the eachDir method on the File object, as shown.
To support additional parameters, these should be placed between the first and last.

FITMENT GUARANTEE All orders are verified for fitment guarantee.
State of the art looks and the ability to take you where you want to go throughout the winter makes the BFG Winter Slalom KSI the right tire for all types of cold weather adventures. Features micro - pores that provide grip mechanism for continued traction on snow and ice. Optimized sipe configuration offers better tread block stability for improved handling and wear, plus enhanced cornering and braking on snow, slush, ice, wet and dry roads.
These tires drove about 3000km and the problem was loud, humming noise above 75 km/h. While there were rails in icy road, the tires started to push car and it was very hard to keep track. While taking 90 degree corner about 20km/h, the car almost went into ditch. Wear is also too big. Price is way too much. Other than that, no problem as far as the car drives.

Handles well on wet or snowy roads. A bit noisy on dry roads but that is expected with snow tires. Feel safe with them on. Would highly recommend them.

Good solid snow tires. Noisier than "fair weather" tires but that is a small price to pay for the traction. These tires on a Subaru Forester make for a very capable road vehicle in poor weather.

Vehicle: 2012 Subaru Forester 4 Dr Wagon X with 8045 KM of Tire Wear
Anonymous made this review on 2/5/2014 and is a Confident, Experienced Driver
I was a little apprehensive to buy these snow tires seeing mixed reviews. Let me assure you, these are great on snow, slush, and ice. I actually have the sxt with19" tires OE, so a 65 with 17" rims fit great. I can only give 4s in handling and comfort, as the deep treads are what they are, and cornering suffers as it will with any snow tire. But these things slice through the snow and slush with ease, so "handling" in Canadian winter is fantastic.

Category | Description |
(none) | Measures without a Category have not been approved by the RTF, but they are listed here because they have been considered by the RTF. |
(tbd) | |
Planning | Upon request, the RTF will consider the proposed planning measure and formulate a consensus opinion on the likely UES values. This process is intended to promote consistent treatment of these measures throughout the region. The RTF will also review and comment on any proposed research design for collecting data needed to support Provisional or Proven UES values. The review will only be provided if the section 3.2.1 UES quality criteria for Planning measures are satisfied. Measure specifications (section 2) and the information described in the Guidleines for UES measures must be provided before this review can commence. |
Proven | Measures can obtain approval for Proven status if the section 3.2.3 UES quality criteria for Proven measures are satisfied. Sunset criteria will be assigned by the RTF along with a plan for data collection and analysis that allows the UES estimate to be reviewed and updated in a timely fashion. |
Provisional | Measures can obtain Provisional approval if the section 3.2.2 UES quality criteria for Provisional measures are satisfied. In addition, it must be possible during the provisional period to obtain the data and analyses needed to meet the Proven quality criteria (3.2.3). The data and analyses may come from programs delivering the measure or from other studies. The plan for completing the necessary data collection and analyses must be approved along with the provisional UES estimates. In addition, sunset criteria must be adopted that are consistent with the plan. For measures that require long periods to collect and analyze baseline and efficient case data, the plan should include staged analyses so that early experience with deployment, baseline conditions, and measure performance can be used to adjust the sunset criteria. |
Small Saver | The RTF may determine that the likely savings from a measure are too small to warrant the resources needed to meet the section 3.2 UES quality criteria for Provisional or Proven status. In making this determination, the RTF will consider the size of the regional end use that is affected by the measure or the magnitude of the likely savings. Measure specifications (section 2) and the information described above for the proposed stage is required for small savers and must be provided before the RTF can designate a measure as a small saver. For small savers, the RTF may choose to convene an expert panel to consider the proposed measure and to formulate a consensus opinion on the likely UES values. This process is intended to promote consistent treatment of these measures throughout the region. |

(none) | The RTF has not set a status for these measures either because they have not been assigned a category or because they were deactivated prior to receiving a status. |
(Under review for compliance w/ RTF Guidelines) | These measures' energy savings were "deemed" by the RTF prior to operating under the new RTF Guidelines. The RTF plans to review these measures under the Guidelines by the end of 2012. During this transition period, the RTF intends for these measures to continue to be considered "RTF-approved." |
Active | These measures have received approval by the RTF and have no other associated review pending. |
Combined | Archived because combined with another measure; click for details |
Deactivated | If the sunset criteria are met, and the new or revised UES estimates have not been approved, the RTF will deactivate the measure. This means that the UES estimates are no longer approved by the RTF. The RTF may decide to deactivate a measure before the sunset criteria is satisfied based on unanticipated factors, such as the adoption of new energy codes or the release of study results with findings that invalidate the UES values or the procedures for estimating those values. |
Out-of-compliance | The RTF may determine that measures approved prior to the adoption of these guidelines do not comply with one or more requirements of these guidelines. The UES estimates for these measures will continue to be "RTF-Approved" if a plan for bringing the measure into compliance is approved by the RTF within one year following the RTF determination that the measure is out-of-compliance. If no plan is approved within one year, the measure will be de-activated. The RTF intends that all out-of-compliance measures will be reclassified, i.e., become a standard protocol or be placed in one of the UES measure development stages of small saver, planning, provisional, de-activated or active, as soon as possible, but no later than five years following the adoption of these guidelines. |
Under Review | At any time prior to the sunset criteria being met, the RTF may decide to place a measure under review. This may be the result of a review of the UES savings estimation procedure or the availability of new sources of information for baseline or efficient-case consumption. The UES values will remain "RTF-Approved" while the measure is under review. As a result of the review, the UES values may be re-estimated and the measure sunset criteria revised. |

Zeroed G-1 – a radical shift in mountain bike engineering
The Zerode G-1 mountain bike incorporates a mid-bike-mounted internal geared hub, which is said to allow it to perform better than a regular MTB in a variety of ways
Article Summary
It wasn't all that long ago that things like air-sprung shocks and hydraulic disc brakes were just being introduced on mountain bikes. Since then, we've heard about electronic and hydraulic shifting, microprocessor-controlled shock forks, and continuously-variable sealed gearing systems. What's next? Well, how about a bike with two chains and no derailleurs that is claimed to be better than a traditional MTB in four key areas? According to its New Zealand designers, that's what the Zerode G-1 is.

Young arms face off in Pittsburgh after off-day
Locke tries to get on track for Bucs as Alvarez looks to keep rolling
After an exhausting stretch of 18 games in 17 days following the All-Star break, the idea of Monday's off-day had to appeal to the Pirates.
"I knew it would be a challenge right out of the gate," Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle said after Sunday's 5-1 victory over Colorado, the Pirates' 11th win during that period. "We met the demands of the game. We went 11-7. What's done is done. We'll all enjoy the day off, the night off, the day off, and we'll get ready for business as usual against the Marlins. And we're going to face three good young pitchers again."
The Pirates are going to start a pretty good young pitcher of their own in Tuesday's series opener, with lefty Jeff Locke set to take the mound against Marlins right-hander Henderson Alvarez.
Every time Locke takes the mound for the Pirates, though, the same questions start to surface. When is he going to come back down to earth? When will regression start to take its toll on his impressive numbers?
Locke has been able to avoid it for most of the season, but his last two starts have been among his worst this season. He walked six batters the last time he faced the Marlins, then the Cardinals roughed him up for four runs and 10 hits on Wednesday. The Pirates' All-Star lefty will look to get back on track against the Marlins at PNC Park.
Hurdle has talked previously about limiting the workloads of Locke and Gerrit Cole down the stretch, but he admitted Sunday that he's less likely to hold back Locke's innings count simply because of the time he's spent in the Majors -- and his success this year certainly doesn't hurt his case, either.
"His time in the game gives him an edge," Hurdle said.
Alvarez, meanwhile, is looking to build on an impressive July, his first month in the Majors this season after spending the first three months on the 60-day disabled list with right shoulder inflammation. Alvarez has a 2.61 ERA and 1.18 WHIP in six starts this season, but he's been even better than those numbers indicate over his past four outings.
In his past 27 innings, Alvarez owns a 1.33 ERA, a 1.04 WHIP and four quality starts. Catcher Jeff Mathis, who was behind the plate for Alvarez's last excellent outing against the Pirates, has been impressed with what he's seen from the young right-hander.
"It's fun to see him develop as a pitcher," Mathis said. "To really pitch well and then throw the ball the way he has, give us the innings he has given us, it's awesome. It's fun to watch."
Marlins: Rotation on a roll
• Since his season debut on July 4, Alvarez has allowed three runs or fewer in five of his six starts and two runs or fewer in four outings. Of course, Alvarez isn't the only Miami starter locked in right now.
Since June 16, Marlins starters have allowed three earned runs or fewer in 38 of 43 games and two runs or fewer in 30 of those 38. They've put together eight straight quality starts, with the most recent coming Sunday from Nathan Eovaldi, who surrendered one run over seven innings and suffered a loss.
On top of that, the Marlins' staff hasn't surrendered a home run in a club-record 12 straight games entering Tuesday's series opener.
• Christian Yelich extended his hitting streak to five games with a base hit in Sunday's 2-0 loss. He's hitting .381 with two doubles and four runs scored during that stretch and has reached base safely in 12 of his 13 big league games.
Pirates: Melancon leads dominant relief corps
• A.J. Burnett gave the Pirates bullpen an extra, early day off Sunday, throwing a complete game in Pittsburgh's win. But the Bucs' relief corps has hardly shown signs of slowing up, racking up a National League-leading 40 saves after posting only 45 a year ago. Leading the charge lately has been right-hander Mark Melancon, who owns a 0.75 ERA in the 12 ninth innings he's pitched this season.
That figure is even lower than Melancon's 0.86 overall ERA, the lowest among all NL relievers. He's given up only one run in his last 22 games dating back to June 7.
• Right-hander James McDonald, on the disabled list since early May due to shoulder discomfort, was scheduled to begin throwing off the mound in a side session Monday.
Worth noting
• Following Sunday'svictory, the Pirates' pitching staff has held the opposition to two runs or fewer 50 times in 111 games.
• After a brutal 13-41 start to the season, the Marlins have gone 30-26 since May 31.
