Pittsburgh Pirates Transactions: June 5 – 11
Read on for an overview of the past week’s transactions in the Pittsburgh Pirates organization:
This past week was an active one when it came to transactions. Unfortunately the highly anticipated debut of Jameson Taillon was overshadowed by Francisco Cervelli being placed on the Disabled List.
June 6 – Right-handed pitcher David Whitehead is assigned to Altoona (AA) from GCL Pirates (Rookie).
June 6 – Right-handed pitcher Clay Holmes is assigned to Extended Spring Training from Altoona (AA). This move was made to make room for David Whitehead to be re-added to Altoona’s roster.
June 7 – Indianapolis (AAA) left-handed relief pitcher Jim Fuller is placed on the 7-day disabled list.
