The Pirates placed Holderman on the 15-day injured list Friday with right thumb discomfort.
Analysis: It doesn't sound like anything too serious, but Holderman will not pitch again in 2023. Dauri Moreta is joining Pittsburgh's bullpen in a corresponding roster move.
Colin Holderman Nabs hold Tuesday
Holderman (arm) struck out two and worked around one hit and one walk over 1.1 scoreless innings out of the bullpen en route to claiming his 21st hold of the season in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Holderman was pulled early in his previous relief appearance Saturday versus the Twins after experiencing arm cramping, but the issue kept him out of commission for only two days. While healthy, Holderman should continue serving as the Pirates' top setup man in front of closer David Bednar.
