Yohel Pozo Going on Concussion Injured List
The St. Louis Cardinals are placing catcher Yohel Pozo (concussion) on the seven-day concussion injured list on Friday and are recalling rookie catching prospect Jimmy Crooks from Triple-A Memphis in a corresponding move, sources tell Katie Woo of The Athletic. Pozo took a foul tip off his mask in Thursday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates and was examined by a trainer before staying in the game. The 28-year-old is evidently in the league's concussion protocol and will now be out for at least a week. Crooks will serve as St. Louis' third backstop for the time being behind Pedro Pages and Ivan Herrera. Per MLB Pipeline, he's the team's No. 6 prospect and was hitting .274 (107-for-390) with 14 home runs and 79 RBI in 98 games for Memphis before his call-up. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect Crooks to see much playing time.
