According to Colin Dunlap, Garrett Olson has cleared waivers and has been outrighted to Indianapolis. Â The Pirates claimed the left handed reliever in the middle of March, at a time when Joe Beimel was injured and expected to miss the start of the regular season. Â Beimel recently returned, and his addition to the roster forced the Pirates to waive Olson.
Olson will be eligible for minor league free agency after the season. Â With today’s additions to the Indianapolis bullpen, along with the demotion of Olson, you have to wonder if someone will be on the outside looking in. Â The Indianapolis bullpen currently includes Chris Leroux, Dan Meyer, Daniel Moskos, Justin Thomas, Cesar Valdez, Tony Watson, and Tim Wood. Â Jose Ascanio is at the level on rehab assignment, and the additions of Blaine Boyer and Brett Sinkbeil, plus Garrett Olson, give Indianapolis 11 options for the bullpen. Â The Pirates will need to create some space for these three new additions.
