Report: Pirates to promote Luis Ortiz from Indianapolis

The youth movement continues for the Pittsburgh Pirates as it was reported Sunday night that RHP Luis Ortiz could be promoted from Triple-A Indianapolis on Monday.

Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported the move, however there’s been no official announcement from the team yet.

Per source, Pirates promoting Luis Ortiz. Right-hander tossed six no-hit innings with nine strikeouts in his last start.

The 23-year-old pitcher has had an excellent season, to say the least, both with Double-A Altoona and Indianapolis.
