Here are some minor moves around the Pittsburgh Pirates system ahead of the new week on the schedule. We already heard yesterday that there was a move involving the catcher situation in Greensboro. Another move was made today in response.
The big news for today is that third baseman Jared Triolo has joined Indianapolis after rehabbing with Bradenton for a week, following hamate surgery. He went 7-for-16, with four RBIs and a 1.188 OPS during his rehab.
The 25-year-old Triolo was added to the Pirates 40-man roster this past off-season. He’s one of the top defensive players in the system, along with a solid OBP guy, who has a little pop in his bat and decent speed.
