Pirates Make A "Good" Trade

For once, the Pittsburgh Pirates made a trade that helped them.
The Pirates got infielder Akinori Iwamura from Tampa Bay for Jesse Chavez (in my mind the best Pirates bullpen pitcher last season)

In the last 3 seasons with the Rays, Iwamura has batted .281, with only 14 HR, and 104 RBI, 29 SB, he missed time last year with an injury, and played in only 69 games. Iwamura will turn 31 before next season. He is not the best player the Pirates could have got, but he is good, and is a great addition to this Pirates team.
