The Arizona Fall League rosters were announced on Tuesday afternoon and the Pittsburgh Pirates are sending a loaded group of players to the league. For most of them this season, the reason they are going is to make up for some lost time. All seven players the Pirates are sending this year spent time on the disabled list. JT Brubaker had the shortest DL stint at two weeks, but once he came back from the early season injury (blister on his right index finger), he had to build his pitch count back up. So he not only lost innings by missing two starts, he lost innings by his role when he returned.
