And Ludwick doesn't have better defensive numbers than Jones, but I will concede that he's probably better out there. So there are 60 games left, the Pirates will now match up a lot better in their 8-9 games against lefties, but for the rest of it, I'm not sure.
I agree that making a big splash would have been a mistake. I think they made the right moves. Maybe they get lucky and 1 of these 2 guys goes off. But I think they'll regret not getting a pitcher, at the very least a reliever.
