Don't have all the info yet (who we dropped), but was able to find this on usatoday fantasy...
Pirates purchased the contracts of RHP Brad Lincoln, RHP Ramon Augero, RHP Bryan Morris and OF Gorkys Hernandez.
and
| Pirates claimed RHP Chris Jakubauskas off waivers from the Mariners. |
 |
| Jakubauskas posted a 5.32 ERA and 1.27 WHIP in 35 appearances (eight starts) with the Mariners this season while battling a few shoulder issues. He turns 31 in December, but the Bucs are desperate for pitching. |
These came out at 4:46 and 4:48 pm
Have not been overly impressed with Jakubauskas been haven't watched really close.

Jakubauskas has an interesting background: a first baseman at U of Oklahoma, he switched to pitching, got signed by Seattle out of the Golden Baseball League in 2006, and broke into the majors last year at age 30:

I figure Bixler’s shelf life will expire about an hour before the Rule 5 draft.

I’m not really surprised at any of the drops. Karstens was about replacement level and just couldn’t get it done as far as striking out MLB hitters.
Eric Kratz is an upgrade from Diaz and maybe Jaramillo as well, so I’d expect him to see time in Pittsburgh next year.
