NEWS AND RUMORS
Follow along throughout the day as we provide updates and commentary on the daily Pirates news, along with links to stories around Pittsburgh Baseball Network.
The FCL Pirates are playing their final games today (weather permitting). They canceled the Friday/Saturday intrasquad games, though I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re still playing sim games with controlled pitch counts.
