Love It! Another young player who has performed well in the past for the Marlins, in this case.

Could use the change of scenery to jump start him again.

Moves Casey to the bench for sure now. A good thing, in my opinion.

Neal Huntington is doing a very good job at the deadline in my mind.

PS I hope we can still find another RP?

Quick Note: Travis Snider is with the team, to wear #23.

Also, Drew Sutton has been Designated For Assignment by the Pirates.

( Per, Rob Biertempfel's Twitter, Pirates beat writer Pittsburgh Tribune Review )

More good than bad can come of this deal, since basically no bad can come of it.

Great get by the PBC. Gave up very little in comparison for a proven major league first baseman.

Also heard Dempster is headed to Texas.

Sanchez has a pretty significant platoon split, doesn't he? Platooning him with Jones can only make his performance better. We might keep him in AAA for a little while longer, though.

Yes, Evolver115. That is what the Cubs fans are saying on the ESPN Cubs board.

That's Great! That means we don't have to face him tonight.

Snider will be in uniform tonight. I have not seen our lineup yet for tonight. I hope Snider starts.

I think Neal Huntington did very well for us this week. He got us players that will help the Pirates both short & long term, on team friendly deals, that will leave the Pirates with good financial flexibility going forward.

Plus, we keep our top minor league talent.

It has been a successful few days, in my opinion. Now let's play some ball & compete for this division & the playoffs!

Let's Go Bucs!

I liked this deal the most out of all of them. I hope Sanchez can contribute in a was McGehee couldn't.

I have no idea what Sanchez's spray chart looks like, but it seems like he would be the kind of hitter that would benefit by the big gap in PNC's left field, with his ability to hit for decent average as well as being a big time doubles hitter.
