Delay (knee) has been transferred to Triple-A Indianapolis to continue his rehab assignment, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Delay had been at Single-A Bradenton, where he was hitless with one walk in his lone game. The 29-year-old is coming back from meniscus surgery on his right knee and could be need by the big club, depending on the status of Joey Bart (thumb).

Delay (knee) began a rehab assignment with Single-A Bradenton on Saturday, Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

Delay is recovering from knee surgery that occurred in mid-April and started behind the dish in his first game appearance Saturday. His rehab assignment is expected to be transferred to Triple-A Indianapolis shortly. Delay is eligible to return from the injured list in early June, though he'll likely require a lengthier ramp-up period.

The Pirates transferred Delay (knee) to the 60-day injured list Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Delay will give up his spot on the 40-man roster in order to make room for Daulton Jefferies, who was acquired in a trade with the Giants on Friday. Delay was already expected to be out until July after undergoing knee surgery in April, so his move to the 60-day IL has virtually no impact on his return timeline. He has resumed catching during bullpen sessions, but he still has a long way to go before returning to the Pirates' lineup.

Delay (knee) caught a bullpen session Wednesday, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

It would appear to be the first time he's done so since undergoing surgery in mid-April to repair the meniscus in his right knee. Delay is expected to miss most, if not all, of the rest of the first half as he recovers.

Delay recently underwent surgery to repair the meniscus in his right knee, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Delay is expected to be ready to resume baseball activities in six weeks and it figures to be several weeks after that before he might be ready to return to the Pirates. Pittsburgh is currently using Henry Davis and Joey Bart as its catching duo, but Yasmani Grandal (foot) recently began a rehab assignment.

Delay (knee) remains shut down from all baseball activities, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Delay has been out for the last week with right knee inflammation and appears to have made little-to-no progress. He's eligible for activation in mid-April, but clearly the catcher will not be ready at that time.

Pirates general manager Ben Cherington said Sunday that nothing "particularly new" has changed with regard to where Delay stands in his recovery from right knee inflammation, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

Delay was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday and doesn't seem to have made any notable progress in his recovery since. He looks set to spend more than the minimum 10 days on his shelf, and whenever he's ultimately activated, Delay could be optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis to play on a more frequent basis.

The Pirates placed Delay on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with right knee inflammation, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

Delay's placement on the IL is retroactive to Monday, so he'll be eligible for activation as soon as April 11. However, because he still has three minor-league options remaining, Delay seems more likely to be headed for Triple-A Indianapolis once activated after the Pirates acquired fellow catcher Joey Bart from the Giants on Tuesday. Bart was added to the 26-man roster Wednesday in a corresponding move, and since he's a former top prospect with no options remaining, he'll likely move ahead of Delay on the organizational catching depth chart. In addition to Bart, the Pirates have 2021 No. 1 overall pick Henry Davis and veteran Yasmani Grandal (foot) -- who is on the IL while he recovers from plantar fasciitis -- ahead of Delay in the pecking order behind the dish.

The Pirates will place Delay (undisclosed) on the injured list Wednesday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear at the moment what is bothering Delay, but more clarification will come once the Pirates make the move official. In a corresponding move, the Pirates acquired Joey Bart in a trade with the Giants on Tuesday, and it's possible Bart ends up replacing Delay as the backup to Henry Davis.

The Pirates recalled Delay from Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

After Pittsburgh traded Austin Hedges to the Rangers on Tuesday, Delay will come up from Triple-A to fill in as the Pirates' backup catcher. Delay is slashing .260/.328/.375 across 118 plate appearances in Pittsburgh this season.
