Pirates activate Grandal (foot) from injured list
Written by I Dig Sports
The Pittsburgh Pirates activated catcher Yasmani Grandal from the 10-day injured list Friday.
Grandal, 35, had been playing with Triple-A Indianapolis as he attempted to work his way back from left foot plantar fasciitis. He batted .257 with a homer and 11 RBIs in nine games with the club.
Signed to a one-year contract with Pittsburgh on Feb. 14, Grandal batted .234 with eight homers and 33 RBIs in 118 games for the Chicago White Sox in 2023.
Grandal is a career .237 hitter with 185 homers and 565 RBIs in 1,235 games with the San Diego Padres (2012-14), Los Angeles Dodgers (2015-18), Milwaukee Brewers (2019) and White Sox (2020-23).
In a corresponding move, the Pirates optioned catcher Henry Davis to Indianapolis.
Davis, 24, is batting .162 with four RBIs in 23 games with the Pirates this season.
