Pittsburgh Pirates Designate Catcher For Assignment

The Pittsburgh Pirates have designated Taylor Davis for assignment.

This decision was made in correspondence to the Pirates claiming Jose Godoy off waivers from the Minnesota Twins. Godoy will be replacing Davis on the Pirates' depth chart behind the plate. 

Davis has not appeared in a game for the Pirates this campaign but was just called up to the team on Thursday. Yet, he has now been removed from their 40-man roster and could be claimed off waivers because of it. Stay tuned for what happens on that front.
