  • Pirates' Ben Heller: Moves to 60-day IL
    By RotoWire

    The Pirates transferred Heller (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list Wednesday, Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. Heller initially landed on the injured list at the end of August with right shoulder inflammation, and his move to the 60-day IL will officially make him ineligible to return before the end of the season. He'll surrender his spot on the 40-man roster to Jake Woodford, who will start Wednesday's game against the Cardinals.

  • The Pirates placed Heller on the 15-day injured list Friday with right shoulder inflammation. Heller tossed 7.1 scoreless innings covering his first four appearances after being recalled Aug. 10 but had surrendered four runs over his last two outings, so it's possible the shoulder has been bothering him for a bit. It's not clear how long he might be sidelined.

    By RotoWire

    Heller elected to become a free agent Thursday, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. Heller was removed from Atlanta's 40-man roster this week and has opted for free agency rather than accepting an outright assignment.
