Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Vince Velasquez delivers to the Tampa Bay Rays during the first inning of a baseball game Thursday, May 4, 2023, in St. Petersburg, Fla.

The Pittsburgh Pirates placed right-handed pitcher Vince Velasquez on the 15-day injured list with right elbow discomfort, one day after he was removed following the third inning of Thursday’s 3-2 loss at Tampa Bay.

The Pirates also ended the rehabilitation assignment for right-handed reliever Chase De Jong, who was activated to the 26-man major league roster.

Infielder Drew Maggi cleared waivers and was outrighted to Double-A Altoona.
