Travis Sawchik, who wrote a fanboy book about the Pirates front office after the 2013 season, implies that Austin Hedges would have done better in the 14-1 loss to the Brewers last night. Sawchik needs a shrink or something.
On Sunday, the Pittsburgh Pirates made another waiver claim. The team picked up off the waiver wire corner infielder Kevin Padlo. Padlo was designated for assignment by the Seattle Mariners to make room for an outfielder. To make room on the 40-man roster, the Bucs released veteran outfielder Jake Marisnick. A little info would be nice. Does anyone on this site care? Anyone?
The Pirates claimed catcher Jose Godoy off of waivers from the Minnesota Twins. The team outrighted minor league veteran Taylor Davis to make room for Godoy. A little information would be nice. Anyone on this site care? Anyone?
On deadline day the Bucs made a small trade with the Toronto Blue Jays for pitcher Jeremy Beasly. The Bucs sent cash considerations back in the deal. A little information would be nice. Does anyone on this site care? Anyone?
It seems like nowadays, Mudcat Grant is remembered for his mutton chops but back in 1970 he helped the Bucs win the NL East
for San Diego against Texas. Great for him! It's easy to be happy for Joe.
This would be an interesting plot twist.
