The Pittsburgh Pirates off-season up to this point has mainly consisted of front office and coaching staff overhauls. That continued on Friday when Oz Ocampo announced on Twitter that he had accepted a position with the Pittsburgh Pirates front office under new GM Ben Cherington.

Per his twitter bio, Ocampo’s title in the team’s front office will be a special assistant to player personnel.
Ocampo comes to Pittsburgh after having served in the Hosuton Astros front office for the past seven-plus years.
