Yesterday’s trade of Jesse Chavez for Akinori Iwamura was hardly a blockbuster. The Pirates traded a replacement level reliever for an average second baseman, filling a hole for the time being and allowing Delwyn Young to return to pinch-hitting duties.

This comes from Pirates Property via MH . Some kid in a Georges Laraque Penguins shirt meticulously perfected most of the 2009 Pirates' batting stances. I hope he had fun in doing so, because there's no right reason to ever study Delwyn Young that closely.
