According to MLB.com's Jon Morosi, the Pirates are expected to be sellers at the trade deadline unless the team's record improves drastically over the next month.
The Pirates have fallen back to Earth after getting off to a hot start and are now poised to press the reset button ahead of the July 31 deadline. This continues the rebuilding movement that began this offseason when Pittsburgh dealt mainstays Andrew McCutchen and Gerrit Cole.
Morosi named Francisco Cervelli, Corey Dickerson, David Freese, Josh Harrison, Jordy Mercer, Ivan Nova and Sean Rodriguez as veterans Pittsburgh would consider trading. Jameson Taillon will also draw plenty of interest, though Morosi doesn't anticipate the Bucs shopping him. Either way, it looks like the Pirates are open for business.
