Is there any chance that Ka ai Tom will be off of the roster in the near future? I am sick of this guy

Roansy with another scoreless outing, 6 2/3 2h 1bb

Priester having his best start this season as well, 4 scoreless. The move to high a was a bit aggressive, so good to see him progressing.

Mason Martin with another hr tonight, he’s starting to string together some good games. Craig is not a long term option, so hopefully he pans out

Will Craig cracks me up. Pirates didnt want him wasting space on the 40 man roster, so he got DFAed. Then no other team wanted him on the 40 man roster. Now he is batting cleanup.

4th different projected #1 pick in the last two months. This is a coordinated effort by the media to screw with the Pirates front office. Sad!

At this point I want them to go with one of the pitchers. High upside college arms > high upside HS position players. Keep hearing about how they could sign a prep player for less, then go for another prep that may be hard to sign and throw money at him. Screw that, give me the best player at #1 overall.

0.7 WAR lol
I don't know how ESPN does their WAR calculations, but Fangraphs has him at 1.3 WAR, which is third in MLB among 2B. His defensive WAR is third last among all qualified 2B, so maybe ESPN weighs defensive metrics more heavily in their equation.

One of the beat writers had an interesting stat on Bryan Reynolds: he can only hit fastballs; his K rate on any other pitch is ridiculous. Weird.
