Pirates Sign Adam Melhuse

By Ben Nicholson-Smith [May 9, 2009 at 9:42am CST]

Melhuse is a 37-year-old switch hitter who caught part-time for eight seasons, most recently with the Rangers and Rockies last year. The move gives the Pirates depth behind Jason Jaramillo, who has surprised with an .847 OPS since starting for the injured Ryan Doumit.
