The MLB Trade Deadline is fast approaching, as teams are looking to bolster their squads as the possibility of a playoff berth looms, while others are just looking to end their season with some less baggage and start working on next year. For the Pittsburgh Pirates, they are in the latter group, as they are the only team in the NL Central with less than 50 wins, and their all-time record has just dropped below .500 for the first time in over a century.
One of the players that has come up all season in trade conversations for the Buccos has been third baseman Ke’Bryan Hayes.
