The Pittsburgh Pirates must push the right buttons in September

In a notes column up now on the Post Gazette’s website, Pittsburgh Pirates beat man Bill Brink has quotes form manager Clint Hurdle hinting at the club sharing time at second base between Adam Frazier, Kevin Kramer and Josh Harrison. Previously, Hurdle had commented that Kramer could see time at third, as well.

Oy vey.

That’s quite a few options for not as many positions. The decisions that Hurdle and Neal Huntington make during the season’s final stanza will greatly impact the club in 2019. Each and every start, each and every at bat and perhaps even each and every play in the field that the young charges above — and let’s go ahead and throw Kevin Newman into this group as well — accumulate will inform the club for 2019 and beyond.
