Pirates' Francisco Cervelli (concussion) back on 7-day DL

Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Francisco Cervelli has been placed on the team's 7-day disabled list with post-concussive symptoms.

What It Means:

Cervelli recently missed over two weeks with a concussion. He returned on July 8th, but he's now landed back on the DL with symptoms. Elias Diaz is starting game one of Saturday's doubleheader, and the team called up Jacob Stallings from Triple-A Indianapolis.

Cervelli is hitting .243 with 9 home runs and 36 RBI on the season.
