Pittsburgh Pirates' Rowdy Tellez redirects media attention from booing of David Bednar to focus on the struggling pitcher's performance and the team's plans to fix him. Bednar has had three blown saves and a 12.46 ERA, prompting calls for a bullpen restructure with Aroldis Chapman as the closer. Manager Derek Shelton attributes Bednar's struggles to a lack of sharpness after missing most of spring training due to injury, but critics argue he should have been placed on the injured list to regain form. Ultimately, the focus should be on how Bednar responds and how the Pirates manage their bullpen until he improves.

The Pirates hope Tellez can regain his previous form and provide a power boost to their lineup. Pittsburgh had a need at first base after trading Carlos Santana and losing Alfonso Rivas to waivers. Tellez is expected to platoon with Connor Joe and will have the opportunity to become a free agent again after the season.

Woodruff will focus on his rehabilitation and explore options for his future in the MLB.
