Perry Hill stepped down from his post as Pirates infield coach Saturday and shared some criticisms of the club on his way out.
Hill, who also served as the Bucs' in-game first base coach, believes the team was too aggressive on the trade market this season. After all, the Pirates shipped off three-fourths of their infield (Jack Wilson, Adam LaRoche and Freddy Sanchez). "The Pirates made their statement," Hill said. It was time for me to go. I won't be back with the Pirates next year."

 Andy LaRoche-3B - Pirates Oct. 4 - 11:57 am et

Andy LaRoche may move to second base in 2010, general manager Neal Huntington revealed.
The move would make room for prospect Pedro Alvarez, the No. 1 pick in 2008. Alvarez excelled after a mid-season promotion to Double-A and is expected to make his major league debut in the second half of 2010, although this is not certain. "If that's going to help us out for me to go to second, that doesn't bother me at all," said LaRoche. The 25-year old would see a fantasy boost if he moved to second and has seen his power develop over the final couple months of 2009.

Facing his former team, Andy LaRoche had the game of his life Monday, going 5-for-5 with two homers, two doubles and six RBI as the Pirates clobbered the Dodgers 11-1.
LaRoche went 10-for-18 with three homers and four doubles in the series to raise his OPS from 696 to 736. He's hitting .338 with five homers for the month, so he shouldn't have to worry about his starting job entering 2010.

Andy LaRoche returned to the starting lineup on Thursday and went 1-for-3 against the Reds.
LaRoche had been limited to one start in the last week because of the flu.

Andy LaRoche (flu) remains out of the starting lineup on Wednesday.
Manager John Russell estimated that LaRoche could play if needed, but wanted to give the third baseman another day of rest. Neil Walker got the start at third.

According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Andy LaRoche (flu) might not return to the Pirates' lineup until Monday.
LaRoche came down with an illness Friday morning and hasn't been able to shake it. Neil Walker will continue to fill in at third base. He went 0-for-4 Saturday, though, and isn't much of a fantasy option.
