The Pirates designated Darrell-Hicks for assignment Thursday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Darrell-Hicks struggled to find his footing on the mound in 2025, posting a 7.45 ERA and 1.45 WHIP through 9.2 MLB innings, as well as an 8.45 ERA and 1.93 WHIP through 38.1 innings in Triple-A. He'll lose his place on Pittsburgh's 40-man roster as a consequence of his struggles, and he'll likely have to turn things around dramatically before the club considers adding him back.

Darrell-Hicks has given up eight earned runs over 9.2 innings during his time in the big leagues this year, and his Triple-A performance hasn't been much better (8.14 ERA through 24.1 IP).

The Pirates claimed Darrell-Hicks off waivers from the Angels on Friday and optioned him to Triple-A Indianapolis.
EDGE Analysis
The Angels DFA'd Darrell-Hicks on Sunday, and the 27-year-old reliever will get a fresh start with the Pirates. He'll start out at Triple-A and will likely need to show significant improvement in order to reach the 26-man roster. Darrell-Hicks logged a 9.39 ERA over 7.2 innings with the Halos and an 8.87 ERA in 22.1 innings at Triple-A Salt Lake City this season

Darrell-Hicks and Touki Toussaint will be added to the Angels' bullpen after Jake Eder was optioned to Triple-A and Garrett McDaniels (biceps) was placed on the 15-day injured list in corresponding moves.

The Angels optioned Darrell-Hicks to Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Since joining the big-league squad April 11, Darrell-Hicks has given up five earned runs across 6.2 innings while striking out four batters and walking four. His poor performance will result in him heading back to the minors, though he hasn't exactly stood out in Triple-A either (9.45 ERA and 1.61 WHIP through 6.2 IP). Victor Mederos was recalled from High-A Tri-City in a corresponding move.
