Phil Gosselin Showed Some Encouraging Signs During His Time With Indianapolis

INDIANAPOLIS - Phil Gosselin was optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis for one main reason: his game needed to be fixed.

Three weeks and three days later, Gosselin is being promoted to rejoin the Pirates. His reset in the minor leagues is complete. Gift Ngoepe will be optioned back to Indianapolis, while Alen Hanson said he will not be traveling with the team on its upcoming road trip. Those two moves left a pair of spots open with the Pirates, which will be filled with the promotions of Gosselin and Max Moroff.

Gosselin hit .310/.337/.405 with Indianapolis. He had eight multi-hit games, including a pair of 3-hit games.
