Pirates Claim Justin Lawrence Off Waivers From Rockies

News summary

The Pittsburgh Pirates have claimed right-hander Justin Lawrence off waivers from the Colorado Rockies, who placed him on waivers over the weekend. Lawrence, once a promising prospect, faced challenges during his career, including an 80-game suspension for PEDs and fluctuating performance metrics. After a strong 2023 season with a 3.72 ERA, his performance significantly declined in 2024, resulting in a 6.49 ERA and limited saves. Despite his past struggles, the Pirates are looking to bolster their bullpen with Lawrence, who will need to be added to the team's 40-man roster. The Rockies allowed him to continue working out and pitching in spring games while the waiver process unfolds. Lawrence's future with the Pirates remains uncertain as they evaluate his potential contributions.
