Hey, this really IS a turnaround year for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Usually, they wait till the trading deadline to ship off their best players.
Nate McLouth is no Hall of Famer, and I like the idea of the franchise getting value for players at their peak (or perceived peak), but it's tough being a fan of this team sometimes. By "sometimes," I mean the last 16 years or so.
If any of the 3 prospects the Braves sent turns out to be a big contributor, this could be a great trade. But it's tough to take the long-range view right now. Pirate fans have been looking ahead for a looong time.
So...how 'bout them Steelers?
