The Pirates have demoted reliever Chris Leroux, who appears to be their last cut of Spring Training. That means their 25-man roster is set, and here it is.
CATCHERS
Ryan Doumit
Jason Jaramillo
INFIELDERS
Lyle Overbay
Neil Walker
Ronny Cedeno
Pedro Alvarez
Steve Pearce
Josh Rodriguez
OUTFIELDERS
Jose Tabata
Andrew McCutchen
Garrett Jones

STARTING PITCHERS
Kevin Correia
Paul Maholm
Ross Ohlendorf
Charlie Morton
James McDonald
RELIEVERS
Joel Hanrahan
Evan Meek
Chris Resop

Note that regular catcher Chris Snyder will begin the year on the disabled list; when he returns, Jaramillo will likely be sent down. Pitchers Scott Olsen and Joe Beimel, who had been assumed to have roster spots as well, are also on the disabled list. Also, it’s unclear at this time whether McDonald, who has a side injury, will be able to make his first scheduled start.
