Craig and Scott (@PirateTakes) discuss the Tommy Pham signing and what it might mean for the rest of the players competing for an outfield spot, how the Pirates perceived payroll ceiling has to be managed throughout the season, and the dangers or rewards of relying on upside to get you to the trade deadline as a buyer.
