Pirates Willing To Listen On Justin Wilson

By charliewilmoth | December 10, 2013 at 4:53pm CDT

The Pirates have had lots of interest in lefty Justin Wilson, and they are willing to listen to offers, FOX Sports' Jon Morosi writes (Twitter link). The hard-throwing Wilson posted a 2.08 ERA with 7.2 K/9 and 3.4 BB/9 in his first full season for the Pirates last season. The Pirates are likely to be on the lookout for a first baseman, a starting pitcher and a backup infielder. They have a second cost-controlled bullpen lefty in Tony Watson and have had recent success acquiring relievers on the cheap, so they may feel Wilson is expendable for the right price.

    Why was Wilson not better in the minors? Seems to have incredible stuff.

      Control issues. Was always a flame thrower but had trouble with control. It’s what got him bumped from starter to reliever.

    I have no problem with selling high on bullpen arms, especially with the way NH has been able to assemble bullpens. It would need to be a pretty good haul though.
