The Pirates really should try and extend Nova. They all ready gave up not 1 but 2 top stud prospects for a rental.

Stud prospects? None of both was in their top 30 to start the season and although Tito Polo has had a nice year so far in single A, he is not really a top prospect. The other player they gave up, Tarpley, is a 23-year-old struggling in A ball. This trade was just a depth trade by the Pirates that worked out well (thanks to Searage).
I’m really curious to see what Nova signs for. I would say 3-$30MM is pretty fair, but with the very shallow free agent market the price could be very high.

he would be a perfect fit for the angels, they need pitching next year

This guys a troll, he says that about every Yankee trade

Slightly inaccurate post. Perhaps this is what was meant: the Pirates already gave up two top prospect in the Hutchison deal. In this deal, the Bucs dealt Harold Ramirez and Reese McGuire in order to acquire Hutchison (who’s not a rental) and to relieve themselves of Francisco Liriano’s contract.
So, resigning Nova could be in their best interest as they would not lose their first round pick.

They wouldn’t lose their first round pick if they didn’t re-sign him. So not sure what you’re talking about

Hot about not having to pitch in the American League East with the small ballparks and explosive lineup as a factor in his success with the Pirates???
