If there was one area that lacked in the Pittsburgh Pirates offense this season, it was the middle infield. Josh Harrison has been hurt off and on all season, and he was eventually replaced by Adam Frazier. Frazier has already unofficially been deemed the starting second baseman for the 2019 season. On the other side of second base was Jordy Mercer. Mercer brought his usual consistent self, playing relatively average defense and being rather average at the plate. Unfortunately, in a league full of impact shortstops, Mercer did not meet that this season.
