Per Jon Heyman of SI on Twitter:
#pirates also are eying #padres relief (bell/adams/qualls). pittsburgh is the story of the year so far
You know what, my thoughts on these pursuits aside, I'm giving up. I'm just going to let the Pirates continue to play baseball, let Neal Huntington continue to pursue moves that he feels are in the best interest of the organization, and if something happens, then it happens. All these rumors are getting ridiculous. Not to say I do not trust the sources they are coming from, but at this point, we've been linked to so many players and teams I really just don't know what is believable anymore and what isn't. I'll let you guys speculate. Just thought I'd post this once I saw it show up on Twitter.
