FOX Sports' Jon Morosi reports that Felix Pie is nearing an agreement with the Hanwah Eagles of the Korean League.
Pie has received just 31 plate appearances in the majors over the last two seasons, so he's going to try his luck overseas. He batted .251/.325/.390 with eight homers and 38 steals at Triple-A in 2013.

Pirates purchased the contract of OF Felix Pie from Triple-A Indianapolis.
Pie will bat leadoff and start in left field Wednesday against the Padres. He'll provide some depth with Starling Marte (finger) sidelined. The former top prospect was hitting .251/.325/.390 with eight homers and 38 stolen bases in Triple-A. The 28-year-old hasn't played in the majors since 2011.

Non-roster invitee Felix Pie has played himself into serious consideration for a reserve outfielder job on the Pirates' Opening Day roster.
Despite the fact that he made his Major League debut in 2007, Pie is still only 28-years-old. He's hitting .308 with two homers, eight RBI and a pair of steals in 22 games this spring, while playing tremendous defense in the outfield. They're only likely to keep one or two of Pie, Brad Hawpe and Alex Presley, but Pie has certainly done everything in his power to earn the opportunity.

Pirates signed OF Felix Pie to a minor league contract.
The deal includes a spring training invite and incentives for plate appearances if the former top prospect makes the major league roster.

He hasn't appeared in the majors since 2011 with the Orioles.

Felix Pie has elected free agency.
Remarkably, though he's already played in 11 professional seasons, Pie will be just 28-years-old when the 2013 season begins. He hit a solid .285/.338/.459 with six homers, 51 RBI and 16 steals in 96 games for Triple-A Gwinnett and should generate a fair amount of interest on the free agent market.

Felix Pie is day-to-day with "general stiffness."
Pie was removed from Sunday's Cactus League game with what were originally diagnosed as concussion-likely symptoms after running into the outfield wall. But he did not suffer a head injury, and should be able to resume his quest for an Opening Day bench spot later this week.
