The Pirates released outfielder , per the MLB.com . Pittsburgh designated him for a signment last week to open Eddie Murray Jersey a 40-man roster spot for reliever . Gorski has been on the Triple-A injured list since late May. Injured players cannot be placed on outright waivers. Once Pittsburgh designated him for a signment, a release was e sentially inevitable. A suming Gorski clears release waivers, the Bucs could try to bring him back on a minor league contract. Hell have the right to pursue other opportunities as a free agent though. The righty-hitting Gorski is a former second-round pick. He has power and speed but has had i sues making consistent contact throughout his minor league career. The Indiana product got out to a hot start this year with Triple-A Indianapolis. Pittsburgh called him up in late April. Gorski blasted a 434-foot home run off in his first major league at-bat. He recorded two homers and a triple in 15 games, but he also struck out 16 times while drawing just one walk. Pittsburgh optioned him back to Triple-A on May 17; he suffered the undisclosed injury a week later. He has hit .195 in 41 major league at-bats and is a career .254/.313/.509 hitter in parts of four Triple-A seasons. Jonah Advincula Jersey
