The Pirates optioned Sanders to Triple-A Indianapolis on Wednesday, Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Sanders was up with the Pirates for just three days following his call-up from Indianapolis and made his lone appearance Monday, when he gave up a run in 1.2 innings out of the bullpen in Pittsburgh's 4-0 loss to the Cubs. He'll give up his spot on the 28-man active roster to right-hander Yohan Ramirez (personal), who was reinstated from the paternity list.

The Pirates recalled Sanders from Triple-A Indianapolis on Sunday, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.
This will be Sanders' third promotion to the big-league club since early August. In five appearances so far, he's allowed five runs with a 4:4 K:BB over five innings. Sanders' stay in the majors could be short this time around, as he was called up to take the bullpen spot of Yohan Ramirez, who can miss up to three games while on the paternity list.

The Pirates optioned Sanders to Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.
Sanders had his contract selected Aug. 5 and appeared in five games with the Pirates before Friday's move. The 28-year-old reliever didn't allow a run in four of his five outings, but he yielded five runs in one-third of an inning against the Reds in his other appearance. Evan Sisk and Colin Holderman will join the big-league bullpen as part of Friday's slew of roster moves.
