As the 2022 player review series came to a close, I figured it was time here on Locked On Pirates to take a look at free agency again and determine some players I think the Pirates should target in this free agent window. I give three pitchers and two position players(both position players are from the same team) and give good reasoning as to how they would help the Pirates now.
