2015 Pittsburgh Pirates Offseason

[voncap]

The one year/2.5 mill contract for Hart a risk worth taking. That is 1.5 mill less than they will be paying Tabata to play at AAA Indy this season.

My source is usually never wrong!

Hopefully we sign this SS from Korea. 40 homers! That's insane.

[Eaglealum]

I saw that.... Got 30 days to sign him.

Make it happen!! Who's the odd man out in the infield? They said he's "versatile"

Well keep in mind that Eric Thames hit .341 with a 1.090 OPS 32 homers and 113 RBI last year in the same league. The same Eric Thames who hit just .250 with 21 homers and 62 RBI in 3 seasons in the MLB. Stats are from Wikipedia, because I was too lazy to do "real" research.

[Crimson's Ghost]

I read it's an "offensive happy" league. And it's a AA caliber league.

If it translates to 20-25 hr at ss,,,,,, I'll be tickled. Mercer and Rodriguez probably fighting for 1 Utl spot

[Crimson's Ghost]

He's not expected to play shortstop.

reports say his arm isn't strong enough for SS. Walker is planted at 2B. Not sure where he fits. If it's a "AA" league, I don't feel as good about him as I did 3 hours ago!
