The Pirates have agreed to a minor league contract with outfielderatt Joyce, according to Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports (on Twitter). The 31-year-old ACES client will presumably compete for a bench spot in Spring Training, as the Pittsburgh outfield mix oftarling Marte,ndrew McCutchenandregory Polancos among the best in the game. The 2015 campaign was far and away the worst of Joyce’s career, as he batted just .174/.272/.291 with five homers in 284 plate appearances as an Angel after being swapped for right-handerevin Jepsenn an offseason trade with the Rays. While those numbers, clearly, are unappealing, Joyce’s track record prior to that dismal season was very solid. From 2010-14 with the Rays, Joyce posted a collective .251/.344/.434 batting line with 73 homers in 2219 plate appearances. In the event that Joyce makes the Pirates’ roster, he’d very much be a platoon or matchup option for manager Clint Hurdle, as even in that quality stretch with Tampa Bay, he batted a paltry .185/.246/.313 in 326 plate appearances against left-handed pitching. Conversely, his numbers against right-handed pitching look rather impressive: .263/.360/.456 with a 12.8 percent walk rate and 18.7 strikeout rate. Currently, the Pirates’ options for backup outfielders includeike Morse,ake Goebbertndean Rodriguez. Morse is most likely viewed as a first base option as opposed to a candidate for significant time in the outfield, leaving the latter two (and perhaps fellow non-roster inviteentoan Richardson) as Joyce’s primary competition. 海賊簽下前光芒外野手 Matt Joyce，小聯盟約附帶春訓邀請！！增加外野版凳深度？！難道是Sean Rodriguez推薦嗎～ ----- Sent from JPTT on my Xiaomi HM NOTE 1LTE. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 59.127.0.241 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Pirates/M.1455857381.A.386.html
