Pirates designate OF McLouth for assignment

McLouth, signed as a free agent on Dec. 7, hit just .140 with Pittsburgh, scoring four runs while driving in two more in 57 at-bats.
Hague began the season with the Pirates, going 1-for-9 with two RBIs in five games before being optioned April...

Nate McLouth is gone, the Cubs are in town
Sorry to have fallen off the face of the Earth the last couple of days; I've been working like a maniac trying to put together a talk for a conference next week and there just aren't hours in the day sometimes. The Pirates DFA'd Nate McLouth today, which pretty much anyone anywhere could've seen coming, and replaced him with Matt Hague. Hague probably won't help...

Matt Hague is in, NATE McLOUTH IS OUT
Nasty Nate 2.0 lasted just 44 games. Not quite what we had in mind when he re-signed with the Pirates back in December. Seriously, we were really expecting big things from him back in the Burgh. The Buccos just designated Nate McLouth for assignment to make room on the roster for Matt Hague.
We can’t say we didn’t see this coming; If you thought the .182 Nate hit in...

OF McLouth proud to be back with Pirates
After feeling lost the past two seasons, outfielder Nate McLouth is happy to be home again.
With the Pittsburgh Pirates.
A National League All-Star in 2008 with the Pirates, McLouth struggled after being traded to the Atlanta Braves. Over the past two years, he played in only 166 games and batted .210 with 40 RBIs.

Forget Atlanta, McLouth has always been a Bucco
Remember Nate McLouth’s 19-game hit streak? Remember when he was the first legit Pirates All-Star in over a decade? And remember how he threw Russel Martin out at home in the 10th inning to save the All-Star game? Remember when a 180-pound lefty hit the river on the fly? Remember how a Pittsburgh Pirate won a gold glove and led the league in doubles? And remember how perfectly...

McLouth Looking to Bounce Back From Rough Couple of Years
BRADENTON — Since getting traded to the Atlanta Braves in July of 2009, Nate McLouth hasn’t played like the All-Star center fielder and Gold Glove winner that Pittsburgh saw during the 2008 season.
But this year, McLouth is making sure that will change.
After several trips to the disabled list last season and having to undergo sports hernia surgery in August, McLouth...
