BRADENTON, Fla. -- The Pittsburgh Pirates just made their first six cuts of the spring this afternoon.
After a 10-5 win over the Yankees, the Pirates optioned outfielder Brandon Jones and shortstop Argenis Diaz to Class AAA Indianapolis.
Outfielder Gorkys Hernandez and relievers Ronald Uviedo and Ramon Aguero were optioned to Class AA Altoona.
And shortstop Brian Friday was reassigned to minor league camp.
That reduces the spring roster from 66 to 60.
