Chris Duffy and Franquelis Osoria have both passed through waivers and will be sent to Class AAA, the Post-Gazette reports. Rule of thumb--if two guys as old as Duffy and Osoria get through irrevocable waivers, they aren't worth anything. The days when the Braves or Marlins or whomever might have had interest in Duffy passed long ago. It would have been nice if the Bucs had shipped him off in the...

Some trade fallout: In order to make room for Andy LaRoche, Craig Hansen and Brandon Moss , the Bucs have optioned Brian Bixler back to Indianapolis and designated Chris Duffy and Franquelis Osoria for assignment. Bixler doesn't surprise me--he didn't serve an obvious purpose on the major league team--and Osoria is out the door because he performed badly and has no real upside. Duffy is mildly surprising,...

It's not a big deal or anything, but I wonder what's going on here : Chris Duffy, who had surgery on his left shoulder Aug. 31 of last year, will begin a rehabilitation assignment with Class AA Altoona today at Connecticut. The center fielder, whom the Pirates had expected to be game-ready in early April, had a few setbacks and continued to rehab in Extended Spring in Bradenton, Fla. What does "rehab"...

Paul Maholm vs. Brad Penny , 10:10 PM. Here's the box. A couple of links: -P- Chris Duffy got a cortisone shot for his shoulder pain. It sounds like he won't be back for a while. Barring a sudden change, there obviously isn't going to be a starting job waiting for him, but given the way Nyjer Morgan has played so far, I could see the Pirates putting Duffy in Morgan's place once Duffy has proven he's...
