I would not be in favor of trading him


Pirates going to need to move on from some of these guys in minors. Suwinski , Martin ,Niggba, Mitchell etc. have been in minors for years.
I am wondering that they recalled Mitchell because they want to showcase him to other teams. He was not on the 40 man roster last winter, so possibly they may like to move him along with a veteran player at the deadline. They have many outfielders in the System so possibly there is a team or two interested in him.

Mitchell has hit .375 since he went back to the minors in late June.

You must recognize Mitchell has been steady on his way up. Nothing flashy, just gets better every year at some aspect of his game. He could be that guy . His arm sucks needs to play 1b. :-/
