Fletcher was optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Fletcher covered three innings in Friday's blowout loss to the Brewers, and while he pitched well (no hits or runs allowed), he is going to be unavailable for a few days. With that in mind, it made sense for the Pirates to swap him out for Saturday's starter, Bryse Wilson. The left-handed Fletcher has a 6.94 ERA for the season, but after his success Friday, he seems likely to get another shot in Pittsburgh.
