Yorke replaced Nick Gonzales at second base today. He's supposed to be working out at first, but the Pirates had to use Adam Frazier there in this one. It's kind of crazy that the Pirates did next to nothing to get better offensively over the winter and yet still seemingly have blocked Yorke from the major league roster. Perhaps he will sneak in if Spencer Horwitz opens up on the IL, and it would be no surprise if he proves to be one of the team's better hitters right away.
