Reports are coming out of Boston,via Nick Cafardo, of boston.com, that the Pirates and Bill Hall are currently in talks. Cafardo tweeted earlier:
@nickcafardo If bill hall accepts pirates offer could start at 2B
Hall, former Red Sock, is a free age.nt this off season, after a 4 year contract initially signed by the Brewers. Hall, a utility player, played every position in Boston, except for 1B and C (yes he even had 1 IP, retiring the side, in a loss to the Royals), has spent a lot of time in the OF (239 G), SS (267 G) and 3B (271 G) over his 9 year career. Seems the interest in Hall, is a rich man’s Delwyn Young, his last contract was 4yr/23.5M. With a utility player of this caliber, would ultimately add to platoon and give a bat off of the bench.
Bill Hall: Career Stats .250 BA/.310 OBP/.443 SLG/.753 OPS; 2010 .247 BA/.316 OBP/.456 SLG/.772 OPS
