The Pirates appear to have found their next reclamation project, according to Fox Sports' Ken Rosenthal, who notes that the club came to an agreement Wednesday with erratic right-hander Edinson Volquez on a one-year deal.
The 30-year-old, who was released by the Padres in August, posted a 5.71 ERA with a 1.59 WHIP across 32 starts and one relief appearance in 2013, averaging 4.1 walks and 7.5 strikeouts per nine innings.
