Giants, Pirates Discussed Sanchez, LaRoche

[Forkboy]

From Dejan Kovacevic of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette:

The Pirates and San Francisco have had trade talks regarding second baseman Freddy Sanchez and, to a lesser extent, first baseman Adam LaRoche, each of whom can be a free agent after this season. The Giants have had a scout following Sanchez, a source confirmed yesterday, and their interest in LaRoche goes back several months. Their preference at first base, though, is for a right-handed bat.

1. Pittsburgh Pirates ---the farm team for the rest of MLB.

2. Good riddance to Adam LaRoche. He has really been a major disappointment.

His younger, OTOH, is worth keeping for another couple of years.
