I would like it if the Pirates recalled IKF, and purchased the contract of Nick Yorke. They could send down Williams and Triolo and rest Hayes for a couple days so both new players could be included in the starting lineup. I think both these players would be a boost to the lineup.

IKF injured his knee and has been sidelined since June 30. When the trade was made he was on a rehab in the Toronto system. The Pirates transferred him to Altoona to complete his rehab. As soon as he's ready, he'll be activated. I suspect Williams will be optioned at that time.

Good to see that IKF has been recalled. Good call by Bobster about Williams being optioned.

Sorry about that. :( It came up okay for me without one? The Pirates were ranked 21st.

With little ability to bring any players to the major league team who are better than what we have this season, being 21st should come as no surprise.
