The Pirates Lose Miguel Yajure on Waivers to the San Francisco Giants

The Pittsburgh Pirates are having a busy day of transactions, including one minor league signing and three players being lost on waivers. The third player is right-handed pitcher Miguel Yajure, who was claimed by the San Francisco Giants.

Yajure was one of the four players acquired by the Pirates in the Jameson Taillon trade with the New York Yankees after the 2020 season. Roansy Contreras has emerged as the key piece in the deal, but he was rated about the same overall as Yajure (depending on the source) when the deal was made.
