Cruz was trying to score from first on a double when he was tagged on his hand. He hasn&#8217;t been in the starting lineup since then, though he did appear as a pinch runner on Sunday. He was in yesterday&#8217;s initial lineup but was scratched before game time with left hand discomfort. It appears that further testing found the fractures and he will be on the shelf about a month. The All-Star break is from July 13th to 16th, so perhaps Cruz will end up returning after that.<br \/><em>More to come.<\/em><br \/>Oneil is having a nice season at the plate and even with all his strikeouts having a hard hit rate 20% above league average and extremely high exit velo\u2019s is bound to give you success.<br \/>Please login to leave a reply.<br \/><a class=\"button login-button\" href=\"#\">Log in<\/a> <a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/traderumors.com\/registration\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\">Register<\/a><br \/>Hot stove highlights, 5 days a week.<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mlbtraderumors.com\" title=\"MLB Trade Rumors\">MLB Trade Rumors<\/a> is not affiliated with Major League Baseball, MLB or MLB.com<br \/><a href=\"#\">Do not Sell or Share My Personal Information<\/a><br \/> \t\t\t\t<label for=\"user_login\">Username or Email Address<\/label> \t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"log\" id=\"user_login\" autocomplete=\"username\" class=\"input\" value=\"\" size=\"20\" \/> \t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t<label for=\"user_pass\">Password<\/label> \t\t\t\t<input type=\"password\" name=\"pwd\" id=\"user_pass\" autocomplete=\"current-password\" spellcheck=\"false\" class=\"input\" value=\"\" size=\"20\" \/> \t\t\t<br \/><label><input name=\"rememberme\" type=\"checkbox\" id=\"rememberme\" value=\"forever\" checked=\"checked\" \/> Remember Me<\/label><br \/> \t\t\t\t<input type=\"submit\" name=\"wp-submit\" id=\"wp-submit\" class=\"button button-primary submit wp-element-button\" value=\"Log In\" \/> \t\t\t\t<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"redirect_to\" value=\"https:\/\/www.mlbtraderumors.com\/2026\/06\/pirates-place-oneil-cruz-on-injured-list.html\" \/> \t\t\t<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/traderumors.com\/registration\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\">Register<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/rss\/articles\/CBMijAFBVV95cUxQT1hMU2dwRUVJTjhESjRXZW9IeWg3MHhZQnZpRmIzal9QSk9FUk5qV1FHcjZFckRQS2NoNEpWUjdHRlRGYUVKWW9GZnl6Qmx1Q19oZ1Nja0NYSHhkSzJGQmNvQnBQV0JQUkY4Tk9NRGJVbW9EMFNtMVluczk0dVBmRXRfdk1lb2lwb2llSg?oc=5\">source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Darragh McDonald | at June 10, 2026 4:35pm CDT The Pirates announced that outfielder Oneil Cruz has been placed on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to June 8th, with left hand fourth and fifth metacarpal non-displaced fractures.
