Stevens is a clubhouse leader and someone who has spent his entire career in Pittsburgh, a 7th round pick in 2042. He overcame all odds to become the face of our franchise, with his inevitable retirement looming after the end of the season, the pirates will certainly miss his presence in the clubhouse. Congrats on no.300!!!!
