The Pittsburgh Pirates returned second baseman and center fielder Ji Hwan Bae from a rehab assignment and placed him on the active roster ahead of Friday night’s series opener at the Minnesota Twins.
In a corresponding move, the Pirates optioned outfielder Jared Triolo to Triple-A Indianapolis.
A rookie, Bae was batting .238 with two home runs, nine doubles, 19 RBIs and 20 stolen bases over 76 games. Bae ended up on the injured list on July 2 with a left ankle sprain.
Bae batted .344 and scored nine runs in nine games at Triple-A this year.
Triolo, also a rookie, made his MLB debut on June 28. In 36 games for Pittsburgh, the 25-year-old batted .273 with one home run and 16 RBIs.
