Pirates moves: Why was Andrew Heaney demoted to bullpen? Was Ben Cherington being cheap?
from Post-Gazette Sports Network: Pittsburgh Steelers, Pirates, Penguins and more · host Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Post-Gazette Pirates insider Noah Hiles goes inside the clubs decision to demote starter Andrew Heaney to the bullpen this past weekend. Was the decision by manager Don Kelly and GM Ben Cherington financially motivated? As was seemingly the case last year with pending free agent Rowdy Tellez? Or was it performance related amid Heaney's profound second-half struggles alongside names like Paul Skenes, Mitch Keller and others in the rotation? Especially with prospects like Bubba Chandler and Hunter Barco in search of opportunities? Noah tackles those questions and more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
