After last night’s 12 inning affair the Pittsburgh Pirates have a short bullpen. A.J. Schugel, Dovydas Neverauskas, Joaquin Benoit, and Juan Nicasio all figure to be unavailable tonight. Also, due to health reasons, George Kontos might be unavailable as well.
For these reasons, the Pittsburgh Pirates need to add a reliever to the roster today. Right-handed reliever Edgar Santana will rejoin the Pirates this afternoon. However, it is possible that this is not the team’s only move.
Edgar Santana is en route to Pittsburgh, per his Instagram.
