| Free Draft Pick |
I'm an unabashed supporter of Neal Huntington. I believe he should and hope he is the Pirates General Manager for several years to come. That said, I do not believe that he's without fault. In fact, he's made plenty of poor moves in his tenure with the Pirates. He non-tendered
Matt Capps who was traded for top prospect
Wilson Ramos months later. The 2009 draft has been a disaster. His intentions and logic may have been right, but the results have been poor.
Adam LaRoche was traded for
Hunter Strickland and
Argenis Diaz when his value couldn't be lower. Huntington's major league free agent signings have been largely been disasters. That said, my biggest gripe with Huntington has been something he's failed to do.
