1 hour ago1 hr I seem to recall him as a starter for Houston a few years ago. But I forgot he existed. What’s his story?

Been climbing his way back since then. Looking at how he's pitched in AAA for the past calendar year or so, seems like he's probably more or less the same guy he used to be. Lots of strikes, not a ton of strikeouts, quite a few gopher balls, but not too many runs.
1 hour ago1 hr Seems like starter depth and sounds like he’ll report to AAA. Would imagine he takes some starts if someone gets hurt. Or maybe they’re expecting to deal some of the other AAA pitching depth (ex: Mason Adams), who knows.

Haven't been paying attention down there, but maybe a separate call-up.May piggy back to Hagen’s move to the pen and give us a potential option to give a look when Noah moves as well.That’s my guess at least without any further digging.

1 hour ago1 hr Depth for potential trade/call up since they are using McDougal and Smith in the pen as of late?

1 hour ago1 hr Much more likely to throw Urquidy out there for the major league team (eventually) than debuting Mason Adams.Pirates just have too much pitching depth with Jared Jones back.Managers always tend to prefer veterans over rookies down the stretch unless those rookies just have overwhelming talent advantages.

40 minutes ago40 min Doroteo is a 21-year-old Dominican who jumped right to the ACL in his first season. Urquidy was DFAed, so the Sox probably had to jump the line and trade somebody to get him.
