  • Henry Davis unlikely to get callup from Pirates
    The Pirates have added Grant Koch, not Henry Davis, to the taxi squad following Yasmani Grandal’s injury Tuesday.

    Advice: Davis has been fantastic offensively since being sent down, hitting .279/.456/.628 in 12 games, but the Pirates apparently don’t want to bring him back yet. If Grandal goes on the injured list, the light-hitting Koch would likely back up Joey Bart. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:04 am

  • Removed with groin injury
    Grandal was removed from Tuesday's game against the Giants due to left groin discomfort, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    Advice: After going hitless in his first three at-bats of the night, Grandal doubled and came around to score during Pittsburgh's ninth-inning rally, but he was unable to catch in the top of the 10th inning. The severity of his injury isn't immediately apparent, but the Pirates should have more information on the veteran backstop's injury before the start of Wednesday's game.

  • Yasmani Grandal leaves game with groin discomfort
    Yasmani Grandal was removed from Tuesday’s game against the Giants with left groin discomfort.

    Advice: Let’s check in on Henry Davis, folks. Grandal could wind up hitting the injured list in the coming days, if the issue winds up being serious. There should be an update on his status at some point prior to Wednesday’s contest. Rotoworld Tuesday, 6:46 pm
     
  • Back from injured list
    The Giants reinstated Bailey (concussion) from the 7-day injured list Tuesday.

    Advice: Bailey was cleared to return to the field Tuesday, so the Giants will waste no time bringing back their catcher who has slashed .280/.340/.451 through 95 plate appearances this season. Curt Casali will be the one starting behind the plate Tuesday against Martin Perez and the Pirates, but Bailey is sure to return to the lineup sooner rather than later. Blake Sabol was optioned to Double-A Richmond in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 3:34 pm
     
  • Giants activate Patrick Bailey on Tuesday
    Giants activated C Patrick Bailey from the 7-day concussion injured list.

    Advice: Bailey rejoins San Francisco’s active roster literally minutes prior to first pitch on Tuesday night against the Pirates. The 24-year-old backstop resumed baseball activities last weekend after being evaluated by a concussion specialist and should take over the catching duties for the Giants in short order.

  • Elias Díaz returns to lineup Tuesday vs. A’s
    Elias Díaz (hand) is back in the lineup for Tuesday’s series opener against the Athletics.

    Advice: Díaz is back handling the catching duties for Colorado in Oakland following a four-game absence due to left hand soreness. The 33-year-old backstop was battling the ongoing issue for a couple weeks, so the hope here is that the extended layoff helps put the issue behind him. Rotoworld Tuesday, 2:57 pm
     
  • Returns to lineup
    Diaz (hand) is in the Rockies' lineup Tuesday versus the Athletics.

    Advice: Diaz missed four consecutive games for the Rockies due to a hand injury, and he had an additional day to recover with the team day off Monday. Jacob Stallings was starting in his place, but the former will return to the bench Tuesday. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:33 pm
     
  • Cleared to return to action
    Bailey (concussion) was cleared to return to action after being examined by Dr. Mickey Collins on Tuesday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Advice: Collins, who is a concussion expert, cleared Bailey for baseball activities this past Friday and has now given the go-ahead for the catcher to play in games. While the Giants have not yet made a roster move involving Bailey, it would appear imminent. The 24-year-old has played just one game since May 4 because of concussion issues.

  • Tallies third stolen base
    Lee went 1-for-3 with an RBI, a walk and a stolen base Monday against the Blue Jays.

    Advice: Lee has had a poor start to the White Sox's current road trip, as he's struck out eight times across 13 plate appearances. However, he's been surprisingly aggressive when he's reached base, attempting three stolen bases across in his last five contests and succeeding twice. Lee has slowly taken over the primary catcher role, though he still alternates time behind the dish with Martin Maldonado. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 8:10 am
