Updated Pirates’ Opening Day Roster Predictions (+)

Thursday marks the first day off for the Pittsburgh Pirates since they started Grapefruit League Play on Feb. 24. So, what better time to take another stab at projecting their roster for opening day?

Though there aren’t any major changes from the first installment, there are some areas that needed updated. For starters, it’s looking like Dauri Moreta won’t be ready for the opener in Miami on Mar. 28 and could be sidelined for much longer.

Because of that and some early trends, the pitching staff is going to look different in version 2.0. Position player-wise, things look the same.
