Availability
The Pirates recalled Hunter Barco from Triple-A.
Fantasy Impact

The Pirates have optioned LHP Hunter Barco to Triple-A Indianapolis.
Fantasy Impact

Hunter Barco has reportedly made the Pirates’ Opening Day roster.
Fantasy Impact
Barco made his MLB debut last season where he tossed three innings out of the bullpen. He'll likely remain a reliever to open the season with the possibility of moving into the starting rotation at some point during the year.
Hunter Barco threw one scoreless inning, allowing two hits with no walks or strikeouts in the Pirates’ 4-2 win over the Reds on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
Barco opened his season line with one inning pitched, two hits allowed, and no runs surrendered while earning the win in the Pirates' victory over the Reds.
The Pittsburgh Pirates selected Hunter Barco's contract from Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
The Pirates have selected the contract of their No. 4 prospect, Barco, who posted a 2.81 ERA and 1.20 WHIP across 99.1 innings in the minors this season. While he was mostly used as a starter, he's likely to get his first crack at the big league level out of the bullpen. In corresponding moves, Evan Sisk was optioned to the minors and Ronny Simon (shoulder) was transferred to the 60-day injured list.
