Pirates Acquire Weaver From Mets

The 32-year-old right-hander is having the best season of his career with a 1.84 ERA through 44 innings, making him one of the most appealing trade targets available. The Pirates are adding him to a bullpen that has struggled with a 4.34 ERA. playerbros.org

Weaver signed a two-year, $22 million deal with New York this past offseason and is owed $12.5 million in 2027. He previously pitched for the Yankees with a 3.22 ERA over 162 innings. His addition gives Pittsburgh a high-quality reliever to bolster their late-inning options.
