Elias Diaz Seizing Opportunity Behind The Plate

Throughout the 2019 season injuries have hindered the Pittsburgh Pirates. While the injured list has increased young players such as Elias Diaz have shined. The Bucs catcher entered the season, as Francisco Cervelli’s backup, however, Cervelli has been limited to thirty-five games due to concussion issues.

Kevin Newman Is Becoming A Key Piece In Pittsburgh

Coming into the 2019 season Kevin Newman had a lot to prove to the Pittsburgh Pirates. Newman made his MLB debut last year but struggled mightily at the plate.

That, however, seems like a distant memory as this season he has been one of the Pirates best players.

This can help because you will be able to make a more educated decision on which pitcher to take off the wire.
