Perhaps unsurprisingly, the Pirates have interest in re-signing J.A. Happ, according to Rob Biertempfel, who also notes that Happ has at least some interest in returning.
"It's a team I would definitely consider, absolutely," Happ said. "Whatever happens, happens. I'm happy with where I'm at right now, and we'll see what's down the road." ...
"There is interest," general manager Neal Huntington said. "It's just a matter of how it all comes together, how it works for him and how it works for us."
Happ sounds a bit noncommittal here, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything at this stage.
