Chatwood signed a one-year, minor-league contract with the Pirates on Wednesday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports. Chatwood will return to American baseball after spending the 2022 campaign in Japan with NPB's Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks, producing a 2.59 ERA and 1.60 WHIP with 18 strikeouts over 24.1 innings before going down with a shoulder injury.
