jharvey+FollowPirates eye Black Friday-style free agent stealsPittsburgh fans, it looks like the Pirates are finally getting serious about shaking up the roster this offseason. With rumors swirling around bigger names and the real possibility of a multi-year free agent deal, there’s a buzz we haven’t felt in years. Even if the team splurges on a headline player, there’s still room for some smart, affordable additions—think Rhys Hoskins for power, Steven Matz for lefty relief, or international standout Sung Mun Song. Who would you want to see in a Pirates uniform, and what moves do you think could actually push this team forward? #Sports #Pirates #BlackFridayDeals00Share
terrysharon+FollowHenry Davis flips the script for PiratesHenry Davis has completely transformed his game for the Pirates, going from a top draft pick with questions about his defense to becoming Paul Skenes’ personal catcher and a defensive standout. While his bat hasn’t caught up yet—his offensive numbers have dipped—Davis’ hard work behind the plate has paid off, saving runs and shutting down base stealers. It’s wild to see someone so heavily scouted for their hitting now making headlines for defense. Do you think Davis can find his swing again, or is his future all about the glove? Let’s hear your take, Pirates fans! #Sports #Baseball #Pirates21Share
Renee Ramirez+FollowMitch Keller’s future with the Pirates up in the airMitch Keller’s name keeps swirling in trade talks, but the Pirates haven’t pulled the trigger yet. Even after dealing Johan Oviedo, Pittsburgh is still open to moving a starter—if the right offer comes along. The catch? Teams seem to view Keller as more of a reliable back-end guy than a game-changing ace, so the blockbuster return the Pirates want (like a big bat) might not be on the table. With so many other pitchers still available, Keller could easily stick around for another season. Would you trade him for a proven hitter, or keep his steady arm in the rotation? #Sports #Baseball #Pirates00Share
Renee Ramirez+FollowPirates finally add lefty arm to bullpenPittsburgh’s bullpen just got a much-needed boost: the Pirates have signed veteran left-handed reliever Gregory Soto to a one-year deal. With almost every other bullpen arm throwing right-handed, this move could be a game-changer for late-inning matchups—especially against tough lefty hitters. Soto’s been durable, pitching at least 60 games each of the last five seasons, and he’s especially tough on lefties. Still, his numbers against righties are a concern. What do you think—will Soto be the reliable lefty the Pirates need, or is this just a stopgap move? #Sports #Baseball #Pirates00Share
