The Pirates designated left-handed reliever Ryan Borucki for assignment amid performance struggles in his last two seasons. After a standout 2023 season with a 2.45 ERA and low walk rate, Borucki faced difficulties in 2024, resulting in inflated ERAs of 7.36 and 5.28. Multiple injuries, including a month-long absence due to a lower back injury and limited play from a triceps injury, have affected his contributions. In conjunction with this move, the Pirates recalled Colin Holderman and optioned Cam Sanders from the roster.
Ryan Borucki has been designated for assignment by the Pirates after experiencing two consecutive rough seasons, marked by a significant decline in performance and ongoing injuries.
After a promising 2023 where Borucki recorded a 2.45 ERA and 21.7% strikeout rate, he struggled in subsequent seasons with ERAs of 7.36 and 5.28.
In 2024, Borucki's performance was hindered by a triceps injury that limited his innings, adding to the challenges he faced following an earlier back injury.
The Pirates have made roster adjustments, recalling Colin Holderman and optioning Cam Sanders in the wake of Borucki's designation.
