Potential Non-Roster Options For Pirates to Consider (+)

It’s been a busy offseason for the Pittsburgh Pirates and general manager Ben Cherington. The team has been active on both the free agent and trade fronts and have made a handful of additions to the club to try and improve for 2023.

Because the Pirates have already so active, they are just about done making external additions to the club, at least when it comes to guaranteed deals anyway.

At Andrew McCutchen’s press conference last week, Cherington hinted that the club expects to add some non-roster invitees to the mix in the coming weeks leading up to spring training.

“[We’d] still like to add. It may be more likely non-roster at this point just looking to add some depth in different areas. We are engaged with some players on non-roster deals,” Cherington said.

Let’s explore some potential options.
