The Pirates lost one front office member last week when Marc DelPiano joined the Miami Marlins as a Vice President and their new farm director. They could potentially lose another member of the front office, as current Director of Player Personnel Tyrone Brooks is interviewing for the Milwaukee Brewers' GM job. Yesterday, Neal Huntington spoke with the Pittsburgh media about the recent personnel moves, and while he declined to go into the Milwaukee rumor, he did discuss Brooks and DelPiano.
“Tyrone Brooks has an impeccable pedigree, when you start to look at working with John Schierhotlz, and part of an incredible organization that he was in Atlanta, worked with Cleveland, John Hart, Mark Shapiro, Chris Antonetti, worked with a great group there," Huntington said.
