Pirates cuts

[Jake]

Duke, LaRoche, Young.

 

No surprises, really. I just thought Duke & LaRoche would have stuck around to the non-tender deadline, but neither was going to get tendered.

 

Young was a decent bat off the bench, but no glove, and, when given regular at bats two years ago, really didn't do anything with them.

 

In other news, the sun came up this morning.

Id take a flyer on Zach Duke.

 

Is the Pirates LaRoche the kind of good one?

[Clem Fandango]

Andy LaRoche was supposed to be good.... but he isn't

I thought for certain Jim Hendry would pounce on his AAAA franchise, but the one I thought he would target was just acquired by Arizona.
