Rest-of-Season Projections
Signed a one-year contract with the Angels in April of 2025. Waived by the Angels in June of 2025. Claimed off waivers by the Pirates in June of 2025.
Designated for assignment
The Pirates designated Darrell-Hicks for assignment Thursday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.
Analysis
Darrell-Hicks struggled to find his footing on the mound in 2025, posting a 7.45 ERA and 1.45 WHIP through 9.2 MLB innings, as well as an 8.45 ERA and 1.93 WHIP through 38.1 innings in Triple-A. He'll lose his place on Pittsburgh's 40-man roster as a consequence of his struggles, and he'll likely have to turn things around dramatically before the club considers adding him back.
