The Pirates reinstated Borucki (wrist) from the 60-day injured list Sunday. Borucki is active for the big club for the first time since early April. He was initially placed on the IL with triceps inflammation before he was later diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome in his wrist. He began a rehab assignment in late June, only to be pulled off of it shortly before the 30-day window ended when he experienced a setback. Borucki resumed the minor-league assignment Aug. 17 and looked sharp during his latest stint at Triple-A Indianapolis, covering five innings and allowing one earned run on one hit and two walks while striking out eight. Given his long layoff, Borucki is likely to be eased back into the Pittsburgh bullpen in lower-leverage situations initially.

Borucki (wrist) will start his rehab assignment with Triple-A Indianapolis on Saturday. Borucki, who has been on the injured list since early April due to carpal tunnel syndrome in his left wrist, was shut down from his throwing program at the beginning of August after suffering a setback. He appears to have recovered enough to return to a live setting, and the hope for the 30-year-old is that he'll be available out of Pittsburgh's bullpen for the tail end of the regular season.

Borucki (wrist) will not throw for the next 3-to-5 days, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. Borucki was pulled off his rehab assignment last Friday after suffering a setback in his recovery from carpal tunnel syndrome, and it will be another several days before he's able to resume his throwing program. It's unclear how far away he is from pitching in rehab games again, but the Pirates are still optimistic he'll return to the club sometime in September.

Borucki has made 10 rehab appearances, yielding seven runs across 9.2 innings. However, he may have suffered a setback in his recovery from carpal tunnel syndrome. A timeline for Borucki to return to Triple-A Indianapolis could become clear after his re-evaluation.
