BUCCO BUZZ: Jake Mangum JOINS Locked On Pirates – Reaction, TRADE Details & First IMPRESSIONS

Описание: Pittsburgh Pirates fans have a new reason to cheer as contact specialist Jake Mangum joins the squad, promising hustle, heart, and the kind of gritty play that could shake up the outfield. Can Mangum’s relentless approach and speed ignite a lineup hungry for more action on the bases and fewer strikeouts? Gary Morgan sits down with Mangum to discuss his jump from the Tampa Bay Rays in a headline-grabbing three-team trade, insider stories from the clubhouse, and how his style echoes Pirates fan favorite Adam Frazier.

Key topics include Mangum’s battle-tested journey from Mississippi State through minor league trades and the challenges of debuting as a 29-year-old rookie. The conversation dives into the value of lineup diversity, the art of base stealing at the MLB level, and expectations for Mangum’s defensive impact in the outfield. Hear why Pirates leadership—and fans—should be excited for this high-energy addition and what Mangum’s work ethic could mean for Pittsburgh’s future.
