Head is batting .214/.375/.403 with 11 homers, three steals, 35 RBI, 45 runs and a 51:90 BB:K across 70 games for Low-A Bradenton. The good news is the 20-year-old outfield prospect is showing terrific on-base ability, exemplified by his brilliant 17.1 percent walk rate -- not to mention he's been hit by pitches 10 times. The bad news is Head is striking out at a 30.1 percent clip, which is why he's had so much trouble hitting for average. He also hasn't tried to run much at all, which is surprising for a guy who's considered to have 60-grade speed and has been on first base as often as he has. On balance, it's taken some of the shine off Head as a prospect, but he still has intriguing tools and the Pirates will give him time to address his swing-and-miss issues as he moves through the minors....

Pirates' Hudson Head: Traded to Pirates
Head was traded from the Padres to the Pirates on Monday as part of a package for Joe Musgrove, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports. A third-round pick in the 2019 draft, Head comes with a decent amount of hype but is quite far from making the majors. The canceled 2020 minor-league season means he's only appeared in 32 total professional games, all at the rookie-ball level, though he did hit a strong .283/.383/.417 in those games. Head projects to have the speed necessary to stick in center field and makes good contact, but he needs plenty of polish if he's to turn his athleticism into game power.... See More ... See Less

Jason Mackey@JMackeyPG4H agoIt's May 3. I get that. But considering how things have gone recently, plus the opponents, this next Pirates series and homestand are both pretty darn important. My column from yesterday: https://t.co/Ft8fEFb4Gx

Alex Stumpf@AlexJStumpf1D agoIt's safe to say the Internet wants the Pirates to be more aggressive at the plate. So does Andy Haines. I talked to the Pirates' hitting coach about the team's struggles of late, and what the messaging/work process is to try to get the offense going. https://t.co/Bc1opsSN6t

Jason Mackey@JMackeyPG1D agoThe Pirates are teetering. It’s hard to make a baseball season about one series or homestand, especially in May. But they also need to get right fast. My column: https://t.co/Ft8fEFb4Gx

Jason Mackey@JMackeyPG2D agoWhen hired, Pirates' new regime talked about being player-centric, avoiding one-size-fits-all approaches. What happened? Offensively, it's seeing pitches, working walks & big on swing mechanics. Hard to see how that helps naturally aggressive & more feel-centric hitters.

Jason Mackey@JMackeyPG2D agoPirates started 20-8 last year. Proceeded to go 5-16. Were 25-24 after 49 GP. This year, started 9-2. In the middle of another 5-16 skid. Currently 14-18. Then again, they had two 5-17 stretches in '22. So much for shortening long losing periods.

Alex Stumpf@AlexJStumpf2D ago“We’re never trying to take a pitch over the heart of the strike zone. … We’re trying to hammer the stuff over the middle of the plate and take the best swing at it.” I talked to Andy Haines about the Pirates’ hitting struggles and his messaging/approach https://t.co/Bc1opsSN6t

Jason Mackey@JMackeyPG2D agoMaybe the Pirates can just call up Paul Skenes -- have not heard anything, otherwise I would report it -- and have him DH on the days he doesn't start. (Kidding, sorta) Remember this: https://t.co/5Qd3PKm0yw

Jason Mackey@JMackeyPG2D agoUnreal. Pirates have now lost 16 of their last 21. Their run differential in that time: -41.

Alex Stumpf@AlexJStumpf2D agoThat's game. A's 4, Pirates 0. The offense had a chance to tie or take the lead in the seventh and eighth, but they couldn't produce. Quinn Priester allowed a couple of solo HR, but turns in a quality start. Pirates are swept by A's and go 1-5 on west coast trip. They are 14-18
