The Pirates finally made an aggressive move.

Alex Stumpf breaks down why the promotion of Jhostynxon “Password” Garcia feels different from recent Pirates call-ups, why the timing matters after the Phillies series, and why Pittsburgh couldn’t afford to play it safe with Ryan O’Hearn sidelined.

Can Password provide the spark this lineup desperately needs? And if he succeeds… could he force his way into the Pirates’ long-term plans?
