Pirates option Miguel Yajure and Sam Howard

It was cutdown day in MLB, where teams had to get down to 26 players, which means the Pittsburgh Pirates had decisions to make on a number of possibilities for their roster moves. They settled on optioning Miguel Yajure and Sam Howard to AAA Indianapolis.

Pirates have optioned Miguel Yajure and Sam Howard to Class AAA Indianapolis. Another one looming with Anthony Banda due back tomorrow.

There were several potential players they could’ve dropped from the roster today, including Yoshi Tsutsugo, Cole Tucker, and Josh VanMeter, but as Jason Mackey mentions, we’re likely to see another roster move for the Buccos tomorrow.
