Colin Moran could be the soft-spoken viking lookalike the Pirates need

Posted Feb 24, 2018
With his 6-foot-4 frame and full red beard, Colin Moran looks like a viking. When he speaks, though, you have to lean in to hear the soft-spoken third baseman. If all goes according to plan for the Pirates, Moran will follow Theodore Roosevelt’s directive: to speak softly and carry a big stick. Moran, 25, was the centerpiece of the Gerrit Cole trade with the Houston Astros. (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette)
