Right-hander Domingo German was released by the Pirates this week after exercising an opt-out clause in his contract. The Bucs are open to bringing him back, likely on a new minor league deal.
German's performance in AAA had a mix of struggles and improvements. While he had a tough outing with eight runs, his recent six starts showed a better 3.60 ERA with improved strikeout and walk rates.
Domingo German spent his entire big league career with the Yankees but faced off-the-field issues, including an 81-game suspension for domestic violence policy violation and missed games due to alcohol abuse.
The Pirates have a decent rotation lineup despite some injuries, with Paul Skenes, Mitch Keller, Martin Perez, Quinn Priester, and Marco Gonzales. They may still consider German in the mix with their current options.
