Hurdle hopes Bucs don't part with Cutch

NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. -- The list of potential suitors for Andrew McCutchen has shortened this week, and the Pirates may leave the Winter Meetings with their franchise player in tow.

First came the Giants, who reportedly checked in on McCutchen but appear to be committed their internal options in left field. Then came the Rangers, who agreed to a deal with free-agent center fielder Carlos Gomez. The most intriguing landing spot fell off the board Wednesday, when the Nationals filled their outfield vacancy in a prospect-laden trade for Adam Eaton.

Who's left?
