The Pirates have acquired right-hander Justin Lawrence off waivers from the Colorado Rockies. Lawrence, who recently agreed to a $975K salary after avoiding arbitration, struggled in 2024 with a 6.49 ERA but had a much-improved 3.72 ERA in 2023 while serving as a reliable late-inning pitcher for Colorado. The Pirates have yet to officially announce the claim but will need to adjust their 40-man roster to integrate Lawrence into their bullpen, hoping to revitalize his performance.
