Dovydas Neverauskas: Moving on to Japan
Neverauskas signed a one-year, $875,000 contract Monday with the Hiroshima Toyo Carp of Japan's Nippon Professional Baseball, Yahoo Sports Japan reports.
After being dropped from the Pirates' 40-man roster earlier this month, Neverauskas likely would have had to settle for a minor-league deal this winter had he opted to continue his career in North America. Instead, he'll head overseas for a guaranteed deal in Japan, though he could revisit a return to MLB in 2021. Over parts of four seasons with the Pirates spanning 76 relief appearances, Neverauskas logged a 6.81 ERA and 1.59 WHIP.

Pirates' Dovydas Neverauskas: Back in bigs
Neverauskas was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis on Thursday.
Neverauskas is back with the Pirates after spending the past two weeks with Indianapolis. The 26-year-old right-hander owns a 9.95 ERA, 2.21 WHIP and 6:5 K:BB in 6.1 innings with the big club this season; while he's recorded 4.2 scoreless frames over his last four appearances, Neverauskas still figures to be limited to low-leverage work during his time in the majors, which could be brief with Jordan Lyles (hamstring) set to return from the injured list Saturday. Dario Agrazal was sent to the minors to clear a roster spot for Neverauskas.
