Pirates released 1B Garrett Atkins.
Atkins was brought into camp this spring on a minor league contract and given an opportunity to earn playing time at first base. But he batted just .129/.182/.290 in 33 plate appearances and will now have to try and latch on elsewhere. The 31-year-old could have real trouble finding another gig.

Garrett Atkins hit a three-run homer off Mike Ekstrom to lead a Pirates split-squad to a 6-5 win over the Rays on Monday.
Atkins also hit a three-run homer Friday, but since that was against Manatee Community College, it didn't really count. He's competing with Steve Pearce, Andy Marte and Josh Fields to make the Pirates as a backup at first and third.
Mon, Feb 28, 2011 04:25:00 PM
Garrett Atkins went 3-or-3 with a three-run homer as the Pirates routed Manatee-Sarasota Community College 21-1 in seven innings Friday.
Atkins took over at first base after Steve Pearce started and knocked in four runs with two doubles. The Pirates say that Lyle Overbay will be their everyday first basemen this season, but Pearce and Atkins both project as superior options against left-handed pitchers. One of the two figures to earn a roster spot.
Fri, Feb 25, 2011 05:25:00 PM
Garrett Atkins will earn a base salary of $800,000 if he makes the Pirates' roster.
He has a chance to make an additional $25,000 for 300, 350 and 400 plate appearances and $50,000 for 425, 450, 475 and 500 plate appearances. Atkins, 31, has a .223 batting average and 625 OPS over the past two seasons, but will look to earn a job as a left-handed bat off the bench during spring training.

John McDonald
D.L.
John McDonald (back) is also dealing with a right elbow injury.
McDonald landed on the DL last week with a lower back strain, but his elbow has also been an issue. The infielder is eligible to return from the DL on May 30, but it's not clear if he'll be ready at that time.

Chase d'Arnaud
D.L.
Chase d'Arnaud (thumb) began a rehab assignment with High-A Bradenton on Thursday.
d'Arnaud has been sidelined since undergoing left thumb surgery late in spring training. He figures to need a few weeks' worth of rehab at-bats but could be optioned to Triple-A after that.

McCutchen was injured sliding into home Thursday, but it's not a major concern and he isn't dealing with any structural damage. The Pirates should update his status on Monday.

James McDonald
D.L.
James McDonald (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Altoona on May 27.
That's assuming he gets through bullpen sessions on Tuesday and Friday with no issues. McDonald is slated to go four innings and/or throw 65 pitches for Altoona, so he'll need at least one additional rehab start before being activated. He's not a given to rejoin the rotation once healthy.

Francisco Liriano

Charlie Morton
D.L.
Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said Thursday that Charlie Morton (elbow, shoulder) will make three more minor league rehab starts.
Morton's rehab from Tommy John surgery was recently halted due to some shoulder soreness, but he returned to game action Thursday with Double-A Altoona and gave up two runs in four innings. If all goes well, he could join the Pirates' rotation in the early part of June.
May 16

Jeff Karstens
D.L.
Jeff Karstens (shoulder) will make his next rehab start Saturday with Double-A Altoona.
Karstens, currently working his way back from shoulder inflammation, gave up one run in three innings Monday in his first rehab outing with High-A Bradenton. He could join the Pirates by early June, though it isn't clear what his role will be.
