Pirates Trade for Callihan, Boost Outfield Depth
Description
The Pittsburgh Pirates have acquired infielder and outfielder Tyler Callihan from the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for pitcher Kyle Nicolas. Callihan, a 25-year-old with a strong bat, could provide immediate depth in the infield or outfield. Despite a history of injuries, including a fractured forearm, Tommy John surgery, and a hand issue, Callihan impressed in spring training, hitting a homer, a double, and drawing a walk in seven games. The Pirates view him as a solid bench option to create platoon flexibility and keep key hitters fresh for a potential playoff run.
