The Pittsburgh Pirates signed left-handed reliever Justin Bruihl and are expected to add him to the active roster, multiple outlets reported on Thursday.

A corresponding roster move was not reported.

Bruihl, 26, pitched in 19 games for the Cincinnati Reds' Triple-A affiliate at Louisville this season, going 4-0 with a 2.31 ERA before he was released this week.
