This is just funny (or sad, if you’re a Pirates fan):

The Pirates will apparently give five figures to anyone who can speak a foreign language and put his uniform pants on correctly. They signed RHP Dovydas Neverauskas, the first baseball prospect signed out of Lithuania, for $60,000. Neverauskas is all projection at this point, with a fastball up to 88 mph and a tall, lanky build. His delivery is awkward and unclean, and he has no viable second pitch, but he does have some run on his fastball. He turned 16 in January and will make his US debut this month in instructional league.

Zing!
