The latest Clint Hurdle MLB and fantasy baseball news
Thu, 09 Feb 2012 01:11:53 -0800 Pittsburgh Pirates 3B Pedro Alvarez and OF Alex Presley will get first crack at their respective positions when spring camp opens up, but manager Clint Hurdle said the players will have to prove they belong in those spots.
Sat, 03 Sep 2011 22:32:00 -0700 Pittsburgh Pirates OF Pedro Alvarez is expected to re-join the major league team once the season ends for Triple-A Indianapolis. Manager Clint Hurdle said Alvarez will not be entitled to a majority of the starts at third base when he does return.
Wed, 06 Jul 2011 10:21:49 -0700 Pittsburgh Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said he will begin talking with team management about what the team may consider needs and what they could trade for before the trade deadline. "We're just trying to be smart with the moves we make," Hurdle said. "We want to make sure we bring in a good skill-set that fits in the clubhouse as well." Hurdle said some of the players that will be coming off the disabled list could improve the team which would allow them not to look for help outside the organization.
Sat, 02 Jul 2011 10:35:11 -0700 Pittsburgh Pirates manager Clint Hurdle decided to use RP Tim Wood during the ninth inning of a game against the Washington Nationals Friday, July 1, because he felt that RPs Chris Resop and Jose Veras needed a break. "Resop and Veras have been in 40 games," he said. "They can't pitch every night. I've got to have other guys contribute. Also, I felt he could get them out. You've got to pick your poison on where you want to go from there." Wood (0-3), who has only thrown 7 2/3 innings this season, allowed one run on two hits and a walk over one-third of an inning and was tagged with the loss Friday.
Sat, 02 Jul 2011 00:45:03 -0700 Pittsburgh Pirates 2B Neil Walker (back) and OF Xavier Paul (hamstring) were held out of the starting lineup Friday, July 1, but both were available to pinch-hit. Manager Clint Hurdle indicated both would likely rejoin the starting lineup over the weekend.
Sun, 15 May 2011 02:54:45 -0700 Pittsburgh Pirates 2B Neil Walker was switched to third in the lineup Saturday, May 14, against the Milwaukee Brewers, while C Ryan Doumit moved to fourth. Manager Clint Hurdle indicated more changes might be coming.
Thu, 12 May 2011 03:01:27 -0700 Pittsburgh Pirates OF Andrew McCutchen will stay in the leadoff spot for the time being instead of heading back to the No. 3 slot.
