The Pirates will select the contract of outfielder Billy McKinney prior to their game Monday with the Rangers, needing to create space on the 40-man roster.
McKinney was acquired from the Yankees last December, marking his first stint on Pittsburgh's major league roster this season, hoping to add balance to a predominantly right-handed team.
His addition brings experience to a young Bucs team, although he won't replicate McCutchen's on-field production. McKinney's career spans seven seasons in MLB, showcasing his versatility.
With McKinney's capability to play as a corner outfielder and even at first base, Pittsburgh aims to enhance their lineup while managing injuries on the roster.
