Pirates Re-Sign Tim Wood to Minor League Deal

No complaints from me about this move. Wood didn't experience any notable success in the majors last year, but he has some good natural abilities that just need more refinement. 94 MPH fastballs don't grow on trees, after all. He'll be a solid depth player to have in camp as a NRI during spring training, and if he puts it all together during the season, we might really have something.

As long as Hurdle doesn’t throw him out in one of the three live games I get to see per year over Veras and Hammer in the bottom of the 9th of a 1-1 game again, I’m all for this.

Should the Pirates keep Neal Huntington?

Nor did he experience any notable success in his previous 49.3 innings in the majors. But a minor league deal doesn’t hurt and let’s see what he can do. Recall liking his delivery.
