Morning Report: Updates on the 2013 Draft Picks Who Were Traded Away

The Pittsburgh Pirates signed Buddy Borden this week after he was released by the Tampa Bay Rays. The Rays made the unusual move to immediately put him in the bullpen after acquiring him. Borden made the Florida State League All-Star game as a reliever last year and also got some starts, which included one earned run over six innings against the Marauders and seven inning no-hitter during a doubleheader. He was in the bullpen in Double-A this year and pitching well recently after a poor start to his season. Now that the Pirates have one of their 2013 draft picks back, what about the other three they traded from that group?
