Can you imagine if they become the Bregman team? What a perfect fit it'd be. He'd help that young clubhouse so much man

Fangraphs has the newest Pittsburgh Pirates additions hitting 1 and 2 in their every day lineup: Still two glaring holes at 3B and DH, assuming SS Konnor Griffin makes the club this summer. #LetsGoBucs

I'm sure you watch tons of Yokohama DeNA Baystars games. Will you be watching whatever mexican league team employs him next?
I'm sure you all have watched tons of Rays games over the years.

Pirates get impact bat in Lowe, RP with premium stuff in Montgomery and a plus-D OF in Mangum. Rays get a very good prospect in Melton and big arm in Brito. Burrows has six years of control and can really pitch. First to say deal was happening: @Chandler_Rome and @Ken_Rosenthal.

To be clear, I expect Konnor Griffin to start the season in AAA

A little bit of a misunderstanding with some of these comments, I’m not saying this is a bad thing. Bae never did anything he was supposed to. Mangum does those things well.
Mangum is literally a competent Ji-Hwan Bae.

Mike Burrows has been informed he's been traded to the Astros, source tells @TheAthletic. Deal is done -

Without Framber Valdez, the Astros need rotation help. They are trying to get it as cheaply as possible.

Ideally the Pirates sign a 3B *and* a DH, but if they are gonna cheap out and only do one they should sign Suarez/Okamoto, trade for McNeil, and DH Lowe

Someone’s mad that the Pirates made a bigger trade for a bat than the Steelers did for a WR2🤫🤫🤫 #LetsGoBucs
I'm sure you all have watched tons of Rays games over the years.

Right now, the lineup looks like this ... C -- Davis/Bart 1B -- Horwitz 2B -- Lowe 3B -- Triolo SS -- Gonzales/Luciano LF -- Garcia/Mangum CF -- Cruz RF -- Reynolds Add one more 20+ homer bat and Konnor Griffin to this, and you might have something decent.

It’s a Jackson Prep party in the Pirates organization! Pirates fans will love Jake Mangum! He will bring a ton of energy and as the all-time SEC hits leader, he knows how to hit and is an elite outfield defender!
Welcome to Pittsburgh, Jake Mangum He went 8-12 in 3 games against the Pirates last season with some great catches in the outfield
