One of the Pirates free agents has found work elsewhere for next season.
Jason Michaels – he is baseball – signed a one-year contract for $750,000 according to MLB.com.
Michaels batted .228 with eight home runs and 44 RBI in 228 at bats with Pittsburgh after being acquired from Cleveland May 8 for a player to be named later.
Also, multiple reports indicate the Pirates are one of four teams interested in signing Ty Wigginton, who was not offered arbitration by the Astros.
Wigginton, who played in Pittsburgh in 2004 and 2005 and was acquired from the Mets in the Kris Benson deal, had 12 home runs and 49 RBI in 115 games over his time in Pittsburgh.
Last season, Wigginton hit .285 with 23 home runs and 58 RBI for the Astros last season.
