  • Sent on rehab assignment
    Bart (thumb) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Bart will see game action for the first time since being placed on the 10-day IL on May 28, a significant step forward in his recovery from a Grade 1 sprained thumb on his glove hand. Once he's cleared to rejoin the Pirates, Bart should push Jason Delay out of the catching mix. Rotowire.com Today, 1:06 pm

  • Royals option C Austin Nola to Triple-A
    Royals optioned C Austin Nola to Triple-A Omaha.
