Eisert Up, Mattson Out for Pirates | Pittsburgh Pirates News

Pirates call up lefty Brandon Eisert from Triple-A Indianapolis to face the White Sox tonight, marking a full-circle moment since he previously played for them in July. Eisert, 28, has a 2-2 record with a 6.00 ERA this season across 34 games, and is 0-1 with a 6.23 ERA in nine bullpen appearances since joining Pittsburgh — including scoreless innings against the Giants last week. Meanwhile, right-hander Isaac Mattson goes on the 15-day injured list with a hip issue, effective Sept. 6. Mattson, who appeared in 38 games this year with a 5.35 ERA and no wins or losses, last pitched Saturday allowing three runs in two innings. The roster shuffle underscores the constant adjustments teams make to stay competitive. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
