Pirates call up Bell, send down Glasgow in prospect shuffle (Yahoo Sports)

Manager Clint Hurdle said Bell will be used off the bench during a three-game series against the NL Central-leading Chicago Cubs that begins Friday night, then return to Indianapolis. Right-hander Tyler Glasnow was optioned to Indianapolis a day after making his debut against at St. Louis. ''It's the next step for me and I'm really excited,'' Bell said.
