It’s been a busy last couple of days for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Adding to the signing of utility man JT Riddle on Friday, and the signings of lefty pitchers Robbie Erlin and Derek Holland earlier in the week, the Pirates further added to their roster depth by signing two more players to minor league deals. These two players were catcher Andrew Susac and outfielder Charlie Tilson.
Susac, 29, was a former top catching prospect in the San Francisco Giants farm system. Back in 2015, Baseball America ranked him as the 88th best prospect in baseball, Baseball Prospectus ranked him the 97th best prospect in baseball, and FanGraphs ranked him 86th.
