EDGE Analysis

Maggi made his major-league debut in late April and racked up two hits over three games, but he was quickly cast off the 40-man roster. The 34-year-old will now be forced to seek out other opportunities.

Maggi cleared waivers and was outrighted to Double-A Altoona by the Pirates on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Maggi was a great story in finally making the majors as a 33-year-old and picked up a couple hits during his brief stay. He's now off the 40-man roster.

The Pirates returned Maggi to Double-A Altoona following Saturday's doubleheader against the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Maggi remained with the club for Saturday's twin bill and picked up his first big-league hit in the nightcap, going 2-for-2 with a double, an RBI and a run. The minor-league journeyman finally received a taste of the big leagues but is now headed back to Altoona, where he has a .468 OPS in eight games to open the season.

Maggi was optioned Saturday to Triple-A Indianapolis but will remain with the Pirates as the 27th man for their doubleheader against the Nationals.

Maggi gets one more day in the majors before heading back down to the farm Sunday. The career minor-leaguer appeared in a big-league lineup for the first time Thursday at age 33. He went 0-for-3.

Maggi will start at third base and bat eighth for the Pirates on Thursday afternoon against the Dodgers, Justice delos Santos of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's Maggi's first-ever appearance in a major-league starting lineup, and it comes at age 33. The career minor-leaguer was called up when the Pirates placed Bryan Reynolds on the bereavement list last weekend, and he's stuck around through Reynolds' return to the team Wednesday.

The Pirates selected the contract of Maggi from Double-A Altoona on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Maggi will take the place of Bryan Reynolds on the 26-man roster with Reynolds placed on the bereavement list. The 33-year-old will have a chance to make his MLB debut if he gets into a game with Pittsburgh after spending 13 seasons in the minors with four different organizations.

The Pirates reassigned Maggi to minor-league camp Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Maggi had a very strong spring with the Pirates, batting .345 with three homers, nine RBI, eight runs and a stolen base over 29 at-bats in 24 contests. He'll likely return to Double-A Altoona Curve to start the 2023 campaign, but he appears likely to move up the ranks quickly this summer if he can stay hot at the plate.

Maggi signed a minor-league contract with the Phillies on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Maggi spent three days on the Twins' active roster last September, but he didn't leave the bench and is still awaiting his MLB debut. He's expected to open the upcoming season with the Phillies' Triple-A affiliate after he spent the majority of the 2021 campaign at Triple-A St. Paul in Minnesota's organization. Over 370 plate appearances at St. Paul, the 32-year-old corner infielder hit .252 with 16 home runs and 12 stolen bases.

Maggi was outrighted to Triple-A St. Paul on Friday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
