Pirates Activate Henry Davis From Injured List Friday
8 months agoThe Pittsburgh Pirates reinstated catcher/outfielder Henry Davis (hand) from the 10-day injured list ahead of Friday's 7-5 loss to the New York Yankees. They optioned infielder Vinny Capra to Triple-A Indianapolis in a corresponding move. Davis was not in the lineup upon activation against right-hander Gerrit Cole, which was somewhat of a surprise given he went 8-for-13 with a home run in his four rehab games. Even so, fantasy managers can expect him to operate as Pittsburgh's primary right fielder going forward. The 23-year-old former No. 1 overall pick strained his right hand in late August, but he'll look end his rookie year on a high note. Davis is slashing .213/.306/.339 with five home runs, 18 RBI, and three stolen bases in 209 plate appearances overall.
