Padres' Jose Pirela day-to-day with sprained pinkie
San Diego Padres outfielder Jose Pirela has been diagnosed with a mild sprain on his pinkie finger.
What It Means:
Pirela could potentially be available off the bench as soon as Wednesday versus the Minnesota Twins. He's been out since Sunday after jamming his pinkie on a slide into third base.
The 27-year-old outfielder is slashing .288/.347/.490 with 10 home runs and 40 RBI across 344 plate appearances (81 games) this season. Our models currently expect him to return on Friday, and we project him for a .282 batting average in 43 more PA on the year.
