A central exchange of the National League was made before the MLB deadline on Thursday night, since Pittsburgh’s pirates treated the third base Ke’Bryan Hayes to their rival, the Cincinnati Reds.
Hayes addresses the reds in exchange for reliever Taylor Rogers and the 20 -year -old campocortos prospect Sammy Stafura, according to the ESPN report. The pirates then confirmed the agreement.
Hayes, 28, the son of former Big Leaguer Charlie Hayes, signed an eight -year contract worth $ 70 million to be a piece of cornerstone for the future. However, pirates are in mode of sale and are going on to clean the money in the coming years.

Meanwhile, the Reds have Hayes under the control of the team during the 2029 season.
Hayes has been fighting on the dish so far this season, since he is hitting .236/.279/.290 with only two homers and 36 ranges. But it is a vacuum in the third base and has a gold glove in its curriculum for that.

The Hayes defensive skill has shone in seasons before this year, to have the advantage of the League in the third base in saved defensive races (21) in 2023, while combined for 36 outs above the average through seasons 2022 and 2023, according to the taste of baseball.

The Reds were looking for a defensive fortification for the list, since they hope to push towards the playoffs in 2025.
The Milwaukee Brewers, owners of the best league record that entered Wednesday, lead the central of the National League for 8.5 games about the Reds. However, Cincinnati is only three games from a wildcard.
There is more than enough time for the reds to get one of the three wild card slots in the National League. They have not arrived at the playoffs since the 2020 season, where they lost in the best round of bunned.
