Two Pittsburgh Pirates pitchers — relief pitcher David Bendar and starter Mitch Keller — are getting a lot of interest as the deadline approaches. But the Pirates might need to be blown away with trade offers for either pitcher, and one in particular might not be moved at all.

The Bucs are reportedly after a team’s top-five prospect in return, which should make Bucs fans happy, as that’s a pretty good return for a reliever that was demoted to the Minor Leagues earlier this season and was coming off of the worst year of his career in 2024 when he finished with a 5.77 ERA and 7 blown saves.

Get caught up on all the latest MLB trade rumors on trade deadline eve, including on the Mets, Dodgers, Yankees and Phillies.
