In preparation for a four-game series in New York against the Mets beginning Thursday night, the Pittsburgh Pirates have made three roster moves to impact the bullpen.
Left-handed pitcher Eric Stout was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis. Right-hander Tyler Beede was designated for assignment to make room for Stout.
The 6-foot-3 29-year-old pitcher has had multiple cups of coffee with the big league club in 2022. In 15 appearances spanning 15 innings, Stout holds a 4.20 ERA with a .290 opponent average, 1.90 WHIP, 18 hits allowed, 9 walks, and 15 strikeouts.
He’s faired much better in Triple-A, spending a long portion of the season with the Chicago Cubs affiliate in Iowa.
