## Resource

The Pirates just pulled off a savvy trade, acquiring infielder Jacob Gonzalez and lefty Brandon Eisert from the White Sox in exchange for pitcher Jaden Woods and their 34th draft pick. GM Ben Cherington says the move bolsters the roster, especially with Gonzalez stepping in at second base while Konnor Griffin’s sidelined. A 2023 first-rounder, Gonzalez hit .244 with 2 homers and 17 RBIs in his MLB debut. Eisert, 28, brings bullpen depth with a 5.93 ERA this year — though he was a reliable lefty last season. With the Pirates holding the fifth overall pick in Saturday’s MLB Draft, this trade sets the stage for a big offseason.
