## Resource

Pirates’ star outfielder Oneil Cruz is sidelined for at least a month after fracturing his left hand, dealing a major blow to a team already missing rookie Konnor Griffin. Cruz’s injury, sustained during a tag attempt against the Braves, threatens their playoff push in a tight Wild Card race. The Pirates are calling up Billy McKinney to fill the void as they navigate this tough stretch. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
