Johan Oviedo - Goes on 60-day IL The Pirates placed Oviedo (elbow/lat) on the 60-day injured list Monday.
Impact Oviedo missed the entire 2024 season while recovering from Tommy John surgery and the Pirates say he's dealing from a right lat strain, as well, which was previously unreported. He won't be eligible for activation until late May, and it's not clear at this point whether he'll be ready at that time. Oviedo's removal from the 40-man roster frees a spot for waiver claim Justin Lawrence.

Justin Lawrence - Claimed by Pittsburgh The Pirates claimed Lawrence off waivers from the Rockies on Monday, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.
Impact Lawrence posted a 6.49 ERA and saw his strikeout rate dip to just 16.1 percent and sinker velocity fall to 94.6 mph on average in 2024. However, he had an above-average 24.4 percent strikeout rate from 2022 to 2023 and his sweeper has been a very effective pitch at times. Lawrence is under team control through 2028 and the Pirates felt he was worth a roll of the dice.
