Pirates' Sean Sullivan: Struggling early on at Triple-A
Rotowire
Sullivan owns a 5.87 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 11:5 K:BB in 7.2 innings over his three appearances since being promoted to Triple-A Indianapolis on June 10.
Sullivan opened the season on Double-A Altoona's injured list while he recovered from an elbow injury that cropped up in spring training, but he was cleared to make his 2025 Eastern League debut in early May after completing a six-appearance rehab assignment between Single-A Bradenton and High-A Greensboro. After turning in a 1.15 WHIP, 0.70 WHIP and 14:4 K:BB in 15.2 innings over seven appearances with Altoona, the 24-year-old earned the move up to Triple-A.

Pirates' Sean Sullivan: Nursing elbow soreness
Rotowire
Pirates director of sports medicine Todd Tomczyk said Wednesday that Sullivan is battling right elbow soreness, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Sullivan is considered further along in his rehab program than Yerry Rodriguez, who also has a sore elbow, although it's uncertain how much time either pitcher might miss. The 24-year-old Sullivan spent the 2024 season at Double-A Altoona, holding a 3.84 ERA and 57:22 K:BB over 72.2 innings. If healthy, he's likely to begin the 2025 season at Triple-A Indianapolis.
