 Tyler Yates-R- PiratesOct. 28 - 8:56 am et
The Pirates are hoping to re-sign right-hander Tyler Yates this winter.
Yates opted for free agency just a few days ago in lieu of accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Indianapolis. But the Bucs still believe he's a capable reliever. "We are in dialogue with Tyler in an attempt to keep him with the Pirates," GM Neal Huntington said Tuesday. The 32-year-old Yates underwent Tommy John surgery in July, however, and probably won't be ready until late 2010. He has a 5.12 career ERA in 248 big league innings.

Tyler Yates has opted for free agency rather than accept an outright assignment to Triple-A Indianapolis.
After appearing in 147 games from 2007-2008, Yates was limited to just 16 games in 2009 before undergoing Tommy John surgery in July. He won't be ready to contribute again until late 2010.

Pirates transferred RHP Tyler Yates from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list.
This procedural move doesn't affect Yates' outlook. The right-hander had Tommy John surgery last month and won't be ready to pitch in the majors until sometime in 2010.

Tyler Yates underwent Tommy John surgery on his right elbow Tuesday and will miss the remainder of the season.
Yates won't resume throwing for five or six months, and it's possible that the right-hander won't be ready for the beginning of the 2010 campaign. He had a 7.50 ERA in 12 innings for the Pirates this season.

Tyler Yates (elbow) has been throwing on flat ground for about a week.
Yates said he's hoping to return to the Pirates in two-to-three weeks, but we'll remain skeptical until he starts facing live hitters. He's currently rehabbing his injured right elbow at the Pirates' spring training facility in Bradenton, Florida and has been sidelined since May 16.

Tyler Yates has been sent to the Pirates' spring training facility as he continues rehabbing his injured right elbow.
Yates will rehab without throwing for two weeks in Bradenton, Florida. The Pirates' medical staff is still struggling to diagnose his injury. He's been sidelined since May 16 with what is being called "right elbow inflammation."
