Matt Pagnozzi, Justin Thomas Depart

According to BA's minor league FA tracker, Matt Pagnozzi has elected free agency. I hadn't seen that anywhere else.

Also, Justin Thomas, who was with the Bucs the last two years, has signed with Bahston.

Hilarious

So many people spent so much time worrying about Pagnozzi in the initial signing thread when it was pretty obvious it wouldn’t end up mattering at all.

Should the Pirates keep Neal Huntington?

Yeah, it was obvious there was no earthly reason for putting him on the roster.

You must be terribly disappointed with this development, Wilbur...

But we have Barajas, so it can’t be all bad, right?

Free your ass and your mind will follow.

Yep, we got rid of the one guy who’d probably post a lower OBP than Barajas.

Jerolaman wants me to remind you he would have a higher OBP than both of them, also not by much.

What people don't realize

Is that Neal has a secret plan to convert Ciriaco to catcher.

All this 4th string catcher manuevering suddenly makes sense now, doesn’t it? Never doubt the strategic genius of the Pirates front office.

Take that, h8erz!
