The Pittsburgh Pirates announced that they’ve activated relief pitchers Ryan Borucki and Colin Holderman ahead of Sunday’s game. Borucki was reinstated from the 60-day injured list, while Holderman was reinstated from the 15-day IL. No corresponding moves were needed, with MLB rosters expanding today from 26 to 28 players.
Borucki made five rehab appearances for Indianapolis during the month of August. He allowed one run on one hit, a solo homer, while walking two and striking out eight. He previously had a rehab assignment in June and July, but was shut down due to nerve-related complications.
