    Attention! Pirates land Derek Lee.

    More importantly, they get Lyle Overbay the hell out of the lineup. Now if they could only acquire a SS, doesn't even need to be special, just about anything would be an upgrade over Cedeno and Company crap-festival they run out there.

    Lee has really started to heat up in July so hopefully he can take that with him in his return to the NL Central. I really hope the Pirates aren't done. Lee wasn't that good of a get as Carlos Pena would have been better but I guess they couldn't strike a deal. But like KOZ pointed out, Overbay is doing next to nothing in this lineup.

    The pirates are still talking with the A's. Not sure if it's about one of the veteran outfielders or someone from the pen. DeJesus, Crisp, Weurtz could all be in play.

    McCutchen was leading the team in HRs this was a MUST deal for the pirates who get a guy who KNOWS the NL Central.
