Nogowski was activated by the Pirates on Monday, Alex Stumpf of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nogowski was dealt to the Pirates on Saturday after he was designated for assignment by the Cardinals last week, and he should provide depth at first base while Colin Moran (wrist) and Erik Gonzalez (side) are sidelined. The 28-year-old appeared in 19 games with St. Louis to begin the year, and he hit .056 with two runs.
