News
As expected, Pirates reliever Brad Lincoln will be moved back to the bullpen manager Clint Hurdle confirmed to reporters on Tuesday. Lincoln allowed two runs over six innings, while making a spot start for Pittsburgh on Monday. “I’m not getting that far ahead of myself,” Pirates manager Clint Hurdle told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. “I think we need to take things pretty much as they come. This is the best we’ve ever seen him. We’ve got five starters who are pretty competitive right now. He gives us great depth across the board.”

News
Pittsburgh outfielder Andrew McCutchen finished 4 for 4 with a home run and three singles during the Pirates' 5-2 win over Houston on Saturday night. He had three hits in as many at-bats against Astros starter J.A. Happ, giving him six consecutive hits against left-handed pitching and improving his average against southpaws to .452 this season. McCutchen's solo homer in the third inning was his third of the season.

News
Pittsburgh starting pitcher A.J. Burnett (1-2) permitted two runs and six hits in eight innings during the Pirates' 3-2 win over Houston in 12 innings on Sunday. It was the second straight game Burnett completed eight innings as he trimmed his ERA to 5.12 on the season. He finished with four strikeouts and no walks -- the first time he has not walked a batter while going at least eight innings since May 30, 2010, while with the Yankees. Burnett allowed one run in the fifth and seventh innings, but halted a two-game streak in which he's yielded a homer.

	Charlie Morton, #50

News
Pittsburgh starting pitcher Charlie Morton (2-3) scattered two runs -- one earned -- and seven hits over six innings during the Pirates' 5-2 victory over Houston on Saturday night. Morton topped six innings for the second straight outing, but was unable to register a strikeout and walked one batter. All but two of the outs Morton recorded came via groundballs. "Charlie was able to right the ship," Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said. "Seventeen balls on the ground, 14 for outs. That was real good to see."

	Kevin Correia, #29

News
Pirates starter Kevin Correia was hit hard during Tuesday night's contest against the Marlins. Correia, who was making his seventh start of the year, allowed a season-high six runs on eight hits over 3 2/3 innings in the 6-2 loss. Most of the damage he surrendered came in the fourth inning as the Marlins scored five times in the frame, including on a two-run single off the bat of Omar Infante. Coreia was pulled after throwing 67 pitches and finished with four walks and one strikeout, while falling to 1-4 on the year.

News
Pirates pitcher Jeff Karstens, on the 15-day disabled list with shoulder inflammation, is scheduled to throw a one-inning simulated game on Wednesday, reports the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. “I want to see a little more intensity from him in the ‘sim’ game,” pitching coach Ray Searage said. “Then, I want to see how he bounces back from that on Friday in a side session.”
