The sequel to the disaster of Dana Eveland. Over or under 3 appearances for Gallagher before he is DFA’d?
rayking
I will boldly predict 5 appearances, then DFA’d.
Of course, he might stick around the rest of the season if Dotel and/or Carrasco are traded. On the other hand, I don’t know when Zach Duke is supposed to return, that could result in a Gallagher DFA.

He’ll fit right in with the Pirates – no one on that roster can pitch. Gallagher has slightly above average stuff, but he lacks command and doesn’t trust his stuff. His mechanics are also a mess. He sucks. Bringing him into a game is like pouring gas on the fire.

he’s only 24. But i hear ya, Pads needed him out of the bullpen
crashcameron
ah yes — the Pirates.
the place where once mildly-promising prospects go to fade away.
just for you, oh, faithful patrons of Willie Stargell Stadium: please welcome … the next Craig Hansen!
Prince Angore
and to think…a few years ago people were upset he was included in the Harden deal…looks like a decent move for once by ol hendry boy
crashcameron
hendry’s problems have never been about his ability to trade away marginal major leaguers!!!
crashcameron
and it’s not like the Cubs haven’t ‘developed’ plenty of marginal major leaguers for Hendry’s use

why not take a chance, what’s there to lose?

who’s roster spot is Gallagher taking? both 40 man roster and 25 man roster?
K_in_PA
Daniel McCutchen was/will be sent down. There were a couple openings on the 40-man already.

I would say Brendan Donnelly on the 25 man (i hope) , on the 40 not sure.

Wait a minute… the Pirates made a trade involving a big league player and cash, and they actually ACQUIRED the player? This could be a big step for the organization. At least in theory.
Padres_Fan_2010
Im guessing that the cash will help the padres get someone to trade for either a bat or a pitcher. I hope they can sign Adrian but they just can’t afford him
PKJ
I heard the reason Gallagher was traded was because he smashed a watermelon with a sledgehammer in the clubhouse.
