Rob Biertempfel's post on Pittsburgh Pirates | Latest updates on Sulia
#Pirates still have not finalized deal with FA lhp Francisco Liriano, but that doesn't necessarily mean ...
... it's off. Two sides reached agreement a few days before Christmas on 2-yr, $12.75M deal http://bit.ly/Z80UqV, but Liriano has not yet come to Pittsburgh for his physical. There don't appear to be any hangups or deal-breakers; holidays simply slowed the process. Team opens voluntary minicamp Monday in Bradenton, FL.
