Pirates might as well do it if it's going to be a minor league deal. He might do well enough to get something worth a damn in a trade next season.Free agent Craig Wilson is open to returning to the Pirates this winter.
Wilson is likely to have to settle for a minor league deal after struggling with the Braves and undergoing season-ending shoulder surgery in June. Wilson said the shoulder was troubling him for two years before the operation. Maybe he'll be better next year if fully recovered.
