Pirates' Cory Luebke: Designated for assignment

Luebke was designated for assignment Saturday, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette's Bill Brink reports.

The veteran southpaw has simply not been getting it done out of the big league bullpen. After giving up a run in Friday's game, he now has a 9.35 ERA and 3.00 WHIP on the season. Those numbers will likely lead to him going unclaimed and heading to Triple-A Indianapolis.
