"The Pirates announced they’ve claimed reliever Dennis Santana off waivers from the Yankees. Pittsburgh designated Jose Hernandez for assignment to open a 40-man roster spot. The Bucs also recalled Ryder Ryan from Triple-A Indianapolis to take the bullpen spot opened by yesterday’s designation of Ben Heller." - MLBTR

I can see why Cherington wanted Santana:
2022: ERA 5.22
2023: ERA 5.91
2024: ERA 6.26.
