Pirates' Dominic Fletcher: Latches on with Pirates

The Pirates signed Fletcher to a minor-league contract Monday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

Fletcher elected free agency back in October after being removed from the White Sox' 40-man roster and he'll now head back to the National League. The 28-year-old has slashed only .233/.280/.325 in parts of three big-league seasons and, even with the Pirates' lack of outfield depth, will likely begin the 2026 season at Triple-A Indianapolis.
