The Pittsburgh Pirates are reportedly making a significant move in the free agency market, aiming to build a more competitive team around their star pitcher, Paul Skenes. They are actively pursuing Kyle Schwarber, a powerful slugger who recently hit fifty-six home runs for the Philadelphia Phillies. Despite Schwarbers age and primary position as a designated hitter, the Pirates are willing to overlook these factors due to his impressive home run record. The Phillies are also keen to re-sign him, indicating a competitive bidding war. The Pirates involvement in pursuing Schwarber signals a potential shift in strategy, as they understand the need to provide more offensive support for Skenes.
