Late last night it was reported by Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic that the Pittsburgh Pirates agreed to a deal with now former Cleveland Indian Lonnie Chisenhall. Chisenhall is coming in to fill the void in right field while Gregory Polanco recovers from shoulder surgery. He signed a one-year deal worth a base salary of $2.75 million and many other plate appearance incentives. After Polanco comes back, it is likely that Chisenhall will be the team’s fourth outfield and back up corner infielder, although he will likely play far more outfield.
