Pittsburgh Pirates: Pitcher Casey Sadler Promoted to AAA

Just a few days ago, the Pittsburgh Pirates promoted Brandon Cumpton to Triple-A. Cumpton at one time looked like he was going to fill a spot for the Pittsburgh Pirates. However, Tommy-John surgery set him back for almost two years. Well, another pitcher who had a very similar situation is working his way back in Casey Sadler.

Casey Sadler made his début with the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2014 as a relief pitcher. He then made his first big league start in 2015. He also earned his first major league win in that same start. However, Sadler was quickly optioned back to Triple-A.
