The Pittsburgh Pirates have once again signed a former first-round draft pick, marking the fourth time the organization has brought the player back despite him never playing in a Major League game for Pittsburgh. The re-signing continues an unusual pattern in the player's career with the Pirates organization.
While details of the new contract were not immediately released, the move suggests the Pirates still see potential in the player despite his lack of MLB experience with the team. This marks another chapter in what has become a recurring relationship between the player and the Pirates organization.
