"Pirates Add All-Star Yasmani Grandal and Left-Handed Pitcher Josh Fleming in Offseason Moves"

The Pittsburgh Pirates have signed left-handed pitcher Josh Fleming to a split major league contract, with a reported value of $850,000 if he plays in the big leagues.

"Pirates Add Former Rays Left-Hander Josh Fleming to Roster"

The Pittsburgh Pirates have signed left-handed pitcher Josh Fleming to a Major League split contract worth up to $850,000 if he reaches the majors. The 27-year-old is expected to serve as a bullpen piece, similar to his role with the Tampa Bay Rays, and will likely start the season in Triple-A Indy. With a career 4.88 ERA in 223 innings pitched for the Rays, Fleming is seen as more of a depth piece for the Pirates' bullpen, which already includes several established pitchers.

Blue Jays continue winning streak against Rays with 5-2 victory.

The Tampa Bay Rays lost their second consecutive game to the Toronto Blue Jays, 5-2, due to ineffective outings by relievers Trevor Kelley and Josh Fleming. Kelley committed a balk and allowed a double and an RBI single, while Fleming blamed his issues on the landing area on the mound. The Rays had a chance to tie the game in the seventh and ninth innings but failed to capitalize. The loss comes after the Rays' 13-game winning streak to start the season, which tied the modern-day major-league record.
