Pirates: Derek Shelton Makes Most Sense As Next Manager
The Pittsburgh Pirates’ search for their next manager seems to be coming to an end and finalist Derek Shelton is a perfect fit.
It’s been an offseason full of change for the Pittsburgh Pirates. After firing manager Clint Hurdle, the team also decided it was time to clean house on the front office side of things, relieving General Manager Neal Huntington and Team President Frank Coonelly of their duties. While the latter two roles have been filled by Ben Cherington and Travis Williams respectively, the new leaders still need to hire a new skipper in the dugout.
