"Throwing every day and being available every day was more of a test for the arm," reliever Eric O'Flaherty said of his 2015 struggles.BRADENTON, Fla. -- Eric O'Flaherty did his homework. He examined the Pirates' roster, asked around about their heralded pitching coach and listened for input about their defense behind the plate.
