The Pirates placed Borucki on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a lower-back injury, Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
ANALYSIS
Borucki's back forced him to make an early exit from Friday's contest, and it will now also keep him sidelined for at least the next 15 days. Hunter Stratton was brought up in a corresponding move to replenish the Pirates' bullpen depth.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
2019
Left elbow tightness took Borucki out of the mix for the original Opening Day, but he recovered in time to debut during the first week of the shortened 2020 campaign. Borucki ended up taking the ball 21 times, tying for fourth on the team, and not only was he able to work regularly coming off the shoulder trouble, but his velocity was way up and remained way up throughout the season. We typically see a jump in velocity going from starting to relief work, but Borucki jumped even more than normal -- so much in fact that his slider was reclassified as a cutter on some sites. Borucki's strikeout rate increased to 28.8%. If he can cut down on the 16.4 BB%, the southpaw could earn more chances to take the ball when the Blue Jays have a lead to protect.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Could leave Pittsburgh
According to Jim Bowden of The Athletic, the Pirates could be open to trading Borucki before the deadline.
ANALYSIS
The Pirates will likely consider the idea of trading several relievers before the trade deadline, and Borucki is a lefty who might generate some interest from contending teams needing a veteran southpaw. That said, Borucki's numbers aren't impressive, as he owns a 5.24 ERA and a 1.25 WHIP in 24 appearances in 2025.
