*BOBBY! is with the Pirates now? When did that happen?

Left-hander Bobby Livingston was traded by the Cleveland Indians to the Pittsburgh Pirates today [September 1] for cash considerations.

Livingston, who will turn 27 on Thursday, signed a minor-league deal with the Indians after being released by the Baltimore Orioles on July 3.

Livingston went 2-5 with a 5.59 ERA in nine starts for Double-A Akron. He also pitched three innings at Triple-A Columbus, giving up six hits and four runs.

Livingston has been a baseball vagabond since being drafted in the fourth round in 2001 by Seattle. He went to Tampa Bay on waivers in 2006 and was immediately traded to Philadelphia. Major League Baseball voided the deal, however, ruling that the Rays had acquired Livingston for the sole purpose of passing him on to the Phillies. He went on waivers and was claimed by Cincinnati. He signed a minor-league deal as a free agent with Baltimore last January.

Vagabond? That might be understating it.
