27 Jeff Karstens, SP

Pirates starting pitcher Jeff Karstens, who is recovering from shoulder inflammation, has traveled with Triple-A Indianapolis for a weekend series in Buffalo but has not been scheduled for a rehab start. Karstens could bump Saturday's starter Gerrit Cole, since Sunday's starter is Charlie Morton, who is also making a rehab start, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Pirates starting pitcher Jeff Karstens was scheduled to make his third rehab start for Double-A Altoona Thursday, but his name was removed from the schedule Wednesday afternoon, according to MLB.com. It is not clear when or where Karstens' next rehab start will happen.

Karstens last pitched Saturday in Altoona, throwing 60 pitches as he recovers from right shoulder inflammation. 

Pirates starting pitcher Jeff Karstens will continue his rehab assignment with a start for Double-A Altoona Saturday, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports. He's scheduled to throw four innings and about 65 pitches.

Karstens, who hasn't pitched for the Pirates this season, is recovering from shoulder inflammation.

Pirates pitcher Jeff Karstens, who is on the 15-day disabled list, began his rehab assignment with Class A Bradenton on Monday. He allowed one run on four hits over three innings of work. The right-hander also struck out four with no walks.
