Andrew McCutchen Not Expected To Be Traded
1 year agoPittsburgh Pirates veteran outfielder Andrew McCutchen will be a free agent after the 2023 season and might normally be considered a possible trade target for contending teams. However, in this case, there appears to be an understanding between McCutchen and the Pirates that he'll remain in Pittsburgh through the end of this season in a continuation of what has been a strong season for him to this point. The 36-year-old returned to the Bucs this year after spending his first nine MLB seasons in Pittsburgh, and he's currently carrying a .265/.382/.411 slash line with 10 home runs, 12 doubles, 28 RBI, 10 stolen bases and 43 runs scored in 82 games played. It's been more of a struggle for him in July, as he's gone 6-for-43 (.140) with no homers, a double, one steal and five runs scored in 12 games.
