The Pittsburgh Pirates placed right-handed pitcher Colin Holderman on the 15-day injured list with shoulder soreness prior to Friday night’s game against the Philadelphia Phillies. To take his place on the 26-man roster, right-handed pitcher Yohan Ramirez has been recalled from Indianapolis.
Holderman has a 3.81 ERA in 28.1 innings over 24 appearances, with 24 strikeouts and a 1.20 WHIP. However, those stats are skewed by his last outing in which he left early due to his shoulder injury and failed to record any outs. Before that game, he had a 2.22 ERA in 28.1 innings.
Ramirez has pitched six games for the Pirates this year, allowing five runs on eight hits and four walks in seven innings.
