  • McKenry working on improving offense: MLB.com reports Pirates C Michael McKenry is the front-runner to back up starter Rod Barajas when the 2012 season opens. To make sure his offense doesn't cost him a shot at making the team, McKenry has met with manager Clint Hurdle three times this offseason for personal hitting sessions. "I'm just kind of keeping it simple," McKenry said. "You have to be a little kid in this game, and too often, I think, we try to over-analyze and be too hard on ourselves instead of just going out there with a clear mind and having fun with it." McKenry could get a chance to play regularly in 2012 since Barajas probably will not play more than 100-110 games. "I feel fortunate to be here," McKenry said. "I look forward to growing, and I get a whole spring to learn the staff this time instead of a day. I'm looking to kind of latch onto [Barajas'] hip and keep my mouth shut and my ears open and see what all he tells me. I'm super-stoked. I really can't wait to get started."

    Fantasy Analysis
    McKenry played a career-high 58 games with the Pirates in 2011. He was a regular for a bit during the summer as the Pirates had a plethora of injury issues at catcher. While McKenry proved to be a viable defensive option, his offense was lacking. McKenry hit just .222 with a .276 OBP. He said the fact he was with three organizations last season took its toll on him. However, McKenry said he has worked hard on finding a solid offensive foundation this offseason and has even worked with the team's director of mental conditioning to help his focus at the plate. Still, McKenry is at best an NL-only Fantasy reserve on Draft Day.
