Pirates call up McRae; Feliz returns for 'pen help

PITTSBURGH -- On Saturday, the Pirates added a pair of right-handed arms to their 25-man roster as they reinstated Michael Feliz from the 10-day disabled list and called up Alex McRae from Triple-A Indianapolis. They subsequently optioned righty Dovydas Neverauskas and left-hander Josh Smoker to Triple-A.

The Pirates will look for the additions to bolster a bullpen that has used nine pitchers to hurl 28 innings over the past six games.
