Nice grab by Puig to make it 21 up, 21 down.

Wow. Through seven. Puig lays out for the diving catch on the warning track.

I wonder how apeshirt you'd go if you DID care.

But why would anyone wanna do that?!?

Obviously something he learned in OKC.

 

[LongTimeListener]

Holy crap, they took him out at 89 pitches.

Blister?

 

[HanSenSE]

Blister?

Maybe. Had problems with that in Oakland. But we've seen this act before in LA.

 

[LongTimeListener]

He sure doesn't look like he wanted or needed to come out.

 

[HanSenSE]

And, it's over.

You are still screwing up what free agency is. The Pirates risk of losing him and the chance of signing him are the same regardless of whether the team traded him.

Of course free agency was a factor, But trading him does nothing to change the economics of signing him in the offseason.

It's about perception, and the Pirates do seem to care about that. They want to be cheap, but they don't want to let the fans see them as cheap.
