Just did some checking,Cruz was recalled from Indy last June 20th. I wonder if we see Endy,or Davis for the upcoming home series with the Cubs.

Nice work, fj. The cutoff date has to be close.

If the Pirates lose today's game and the Cubs win theirs, then I would think that it would be in the Pirates best interest to make a change- for more than one reason.

Bae is the team's 2nd leading hitter and is 2nd in the NL in SBs. He's not going anywhere.

Mathias should go before Bae. They need to make a 40 man roster move to add Davis so Mathias would be my player most likely to go.

"We have selected OF/C Henry Davis from Triple-A Indianapolis.

To make room on the 26-man roster, INF Mark Mathias was optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis.

To make room on the 40-man roster, RHP Elijah Villalobos was designated for assignment."

Without Mathias, they now have only 5 infielders and that includes Bae who often plays OF. The PG has an article today about Nick Gonzalez playing some SS and 3B at Indy in addition to his usual 2B. In his last 16 games he's hitting .283 with 8 extra base hits. I wonder if they're preparing him to be called up soon.

Make me smile. Put him at 3B.
