Pirates call up prospect from Bailey Falter trade to make debut

The Bailey Falter trade is starting to look better with Callan Moss heating up in High-A and now the other piece of the trade is joining the Pirates. Pittsburgh is promoting left-handed reliever Evan Sisk to join the bullpen and replace Cam Sanders.

Sisk, a 28-year-old southpaw, came with Moss in the trade for Falter and was the only acquisition with major league experience. Sisk is a has a very funky lefty delivery — the soft-tossing sidearm guy posted a 1.69 ERA and 1.80 FIP in the big leagues with Kansas City. Falter appears to have taken his role with the Royals, as he was just demoted to the bullpen there.
