Pirates demote struggling Presley
The Pittsburgh Pirates' offense is so abysmal Alex Presley, their fifth-best hitter, was demoted to the minor leagues and richly deserved it. Imagine what that says about the rest of the lineup. Presley, the opening day left fielder and leadoff man, was optioned to Class AAA Indianapolis after batting .220 with two home runs and seven RBIs. He batted .298 last season and...

Alex Presley is out, Evan Meek is back in
Just two weeks after Evan Meek was sent down to AAA Indianapolis because his velocity-less fastball had his ERA inflated to more than twice the Pirates’ average run total, the Buccos have re-called Meek. In return, they’ve shipped Alex Presley down to the minors.

Pirates demote Alex Presley, recall Evan Meek
The Pirates announced this afternoon that Alex Presley is being demoted to Triple-A Indianapolis and that Evan Meek will be recalled to take his place on the roster for now.

Alex Presley Out of the Lineup Again
Alex Presley got off to a fast start to the 2012 season, hitting .303 with four doubles in his first 19 games.
