Pirates' Tony Watson: Placed on paternity list Wednesday

Watson was placed on the paternity list Wednesday.

Analysis:

Watson will leave the team for a bit in order to attend to the birth of his child. The maximum stay on the paternity list is three days, so the left-hander could return to the Pittsburgh bullpen sometime over the weekend. In the meantime, right-hander Rob Scahill will take his spot in the bullpen after being recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis.
