Callihan

This qualifies as a bit of a surprise since Garcia was off to a sizzling-hot start this spring, batting .405 (15-for-37) with two homers and three steals in 17 games. The calculus for the Pirates likely involves having the 23-year-old corner outfielder playing regularly on the doorstop of the majors as opposed to languishing in a part-time role at the highest level. His departure means that veteran offseason acquisition Ryan O’Hearn will open the year as Pittsburgh’s starting right fielder with Marcell Ozuna at DH.

It’s an extremely rare intra-divisional trade between longtime rivals. Callihan ascended to the big leagues early last season before suffering a gruesome fractured left forearm on a sliding collision with the left-field wall in just his fourth big-league game. He batted .303/.410/.528 with four homers and six steals in 24 games at the Triple-A level prior to his major-league debut. The 25-year-old’s defensive versatility gives him some appeal for the Pirates in a reserve role.

Nothing has changed in the prognosis for the 24-year-old infielder — who is out for the next six-to-eight weeks after undergoing surgery to repair a left forearm fracture — this was done to free up a spot on the team’s 40-man roster for the addition of Connor Joe on Friday. Callihan sustained his injury as he crashed into the left field wall during Monday’s game against the Braves.

Callihan will be shut down for roughly two months before resuming baseball activities after suffering a gruesome-looking left forearm fracture during Monday’s game against the Braves. The 24-year-old rookie underwent surgery on Tuesday and is facing an extended absence, but it’s not expected to be a season-ending procedure. There’s a chance he’s able to make it back to Cincinnati at some point in the final two months of the season, barring any setbacks.

Callihan was hurt attempting a diving catch last night in his fourth big-league game. It’s unclear if he has a shot of making it back this season.

Callihan is facing a lengthy absence after suffering multiple broken bones in his left arm when he crashed into the left-field wall in foul territory attempting to make a sliding catch. The 24-year-old was playing in just the fourth big-league game of his career.

This didn’t look good. Callihan suffered what appeared to be a serious-looking left arm injury when he collided with the left-field wall while attempting to make a sliding catch during the bottom of the third inning. The positive news here is that he was able to walk off the field under his own power while holding his left arm. There should be an update on his status shortly.

Callihan is hitting .303/.410/.528 with four homers and six steals in 24 games for Triple-A Louisville. He’ll take the place of Jeimer Candelario, who is now on the IL. While Callihan should operate as a bench bat, he’ll will start in left field on Wednesday with Austin Hays battling a hamstring injury.

Callihan was a third-round pick in the 2019 MLB Draft and gets his first promotion to the big leagues after hitting .303/.410/.528 with four homers and six steals in 24 games this season for Triple-A Louisville. He’ll join the club for Wednesday’s doubleheader at Great American Ball Park.

Hinds and Marte are the two biggest names on the list, as they both have seen time with the Reds and have the potential to be long-term options. They can safely be ignored in all but keeper/dynasty formats for the 2025 campaign.
