    Pirates trade for some Canadian guy

    Pirates acquired 1B Justin Morneau from the Twins for OF Alex Presley and a player to be named later or cash.
    The trade gives the Pirates a much needed upgrade at first base over the current platoon of Garrett Jones and Gaby Sanchez. Morneau is batting .259/.315/.426 with 17 home runs over 495 at-bats and is set to become a free agent this offseason. Presley, 28, should see the majority of playing time in right field with the Twins.
    I'm going to miss Presley. I guess it's an upgrade at 1B, but another left handed hitter is all the Pirates need.
