Kyyle23 Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Pittsburgh really is a joke. Just a constant outflow of talent, nothing retained, nice stadium 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Yeah what did this move do for them? Shed some salary for the next 4-5 years (signed for 4 with a 5th year option)? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestEddy Posted July 30 Author Share Posted July 30 Weird. Stafura was MLB's #9 prospect in the Reds' system, and FanGraphs didn't have him in Cincy's top 45. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BamaDoc Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 (edited) Hayes OPS+ 59 this year and 61 last and owed 9 million a year for 4 yrs with back issues. Rogers a flip candidate while Stafura is a 50FV shortstop. I think huge win for Pittsburgh. Small market/dollar spender gets out from contract. Like someone giving us a good prospect for Benintendi.

I thought Rogers was flipped but it turns out his twin was dealt to the Mets. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/07/mets-to-acquire-tyler-rogers.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
