Pirates' Chad Kuhl: Shifted to 60-day DL

Kuhl (forearm) was moved to the 60-day disabled list Tuesday.

Since Kuhl landed on the DL in late June, this move guarantees that he will remain sidelined until the end of August, as previously expected. The right-hander has yet to resume throwing after being shut down for four weeks starting July 11. That timeline indicates that he should be able to start a throwing progression next week so long as there is no lingering discomfort in his forearm. This move clears up a 40-man roster spot for Chris Archer.
