Slow day at the winter meetings

Not much happening at the winter meetings today, Pirates-wise, or at least not so far.

This is no surprise, but Neal Huntington continued to make it clear that he’s perfectly satisfied with baseball’s third-worst offense. He sees the only issue at third base as being David Freese’s unsuitability for every day play rather than the need to upgrade the team’s anemic offense.

“Between Frazier, Harrison, Moroff, Freese and Sean, we believe that we can more than complement David and give him the down time that he needs to remain fresh and strong.”

Huntington wouldn’t rule out the possibility of making a trade or free agent signing,

“But Frazier being back in the infield mix and Rodriguez coming off a baseball offseason, we look forward to seeing what they are and where they’re going to be,” Huntington said.
