Pirates Not In Running for Willingham

Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle tweeted the other day that the Minnesota Twins, Cleveland Indians, and Colorado Rockies are the most likely teams to acquire first baseman Josh Willingham. The former Athletic was a guy I was expecting the Pirates to go after, but it doesn't look like they have much interest in him. I keep holding on to hear some encouraging news about the Pirates going after a first baseman in free agency or in a trade, but the rumors haven't been there yet. Let's hope that's just temporary.
