Upton is having a disappointing year, batting just .267/.349/.386 for the D'Backs, but he would be a huge addition to a Pirates lineup that's very much in need of one despite a recent offensive surge. He would cost much more in prospects than Quentin, who has batted .273/.403/.527 with seven homers in 32 games since coming back from the disabled list

Upton and McCutchen would make one hell of an OF
Arizona would probably ask for Marte and Alvarez to start assuming Tallion and Cole are off limits.
I really hope the Reds get involved in this one.
