To Josh Naylor in free agency.
The Pittsburgh Pirates famously have not signed a big name free agent, I believe, since 2012.
So they made an offer per Jeff Passan.
Josh Naylor did not end up signing with the Pirates.
He ended up signing with the Mariners.
But then the report came out that the Pirates did not actually make an offer to Josh Naylor.
The Pirates just leaked information saying that they were making an offer.
So their offer to Josh Naylor was simply leaking news that they were making an offer to him.
What pieces of shit.
Just to keep their fans happy.
When in reality, Naylor pretty much agreed to re-sign with the Mariners right after the World Series.
The Pirates were never part of the equation whatsoever.
Yeah.
But they were like, hey, just so you know, hey fans, we're trying to spend money.
Bob Nutting.
No one wants to take our money.
We're making an effort.
We contacted all the right people to let them know that we were thinking about it.
Don't be mad at us.
We're trying.
