Pirates' Yerry De Los Santos: Done for season
Rotowire
Triple-A Indianapolis placed De Los Santos on its 7-day injured list Aug. 19 with an unspecified injury and transferred him to the 60-day IL on Aug. 28.

Pirates' Yerry De Los Santos: Appears healthy for spring training
Rotowire
De Los Santos (lat) threw a bullpen session Friday, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.
The 25-year-old's ability to throw a side session alongside some of the Pirates' other healthy pitchers at the early stages of camp suggests he's made a full recovery from the right lat strain that sidelined him for most of the final eight weeks of the 2022 season. Though the fact that he has three minor-league options remaining may work against him in his bid for a spot on the Pirates' Opening Day roster, De Los Santos looks to be one of the Bucs' more promising relievers from a skills standpoint. In his first taste of the big leagues in 2022, De Los Santos submitted a 4.91 ERA (4.01 FIP), 1.29 WHIP and 13.4 K-BB% across 25.2 innings.
Pirates' Yerry De Los Santos: Lands on 60-day injured list
Rotowire
De Los Santos was placed on the 60-day injured list with a right lat strain Friday, Alex Stumpf of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.
De Los Santos posted a 4.91 ERA in 25.2 innings of relief in his rookie season, though that number was as low as 2.84 as recently as July 24. It now seems possible that his 10.80 ERA over his last eight appearances may be at least partially attributable to injury. His 60-day absence takes him past the final day of the season, so the injury officially shuts him down for the year. Austin Brice's contract was selected in a corresponding move.
Pirates' Yerry De Los Santos: Struggles in setup role
Rotowire
De Los Santos allowed three earned runs on four hits and a walk across 0.2 innings Wednesday against the Brewers.
De Los Santos entered the game in the eighth inning and retired the first two batters he faced without incident. However, he went on to allow five consecutive batters to reach base to blow a three-run lead. De Los Santos looked to be in a strong position to earn save chances with David Bednar (back) sidelined, but he has worked in the eighth inning in both of his appearances since Bednar became unavailable. De Los Santos has also struggled of late, allowing at least one earned run in six of his last 15 appearances.
