J. Osuna - 3B

PIT

Osuna went 2-for-4 with a pair of doubles, a walk and three runs scored during Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Giants.

The 26-year-old first baseman hit a leadoff double and scored in the second inning, then led off the fourth frame with his second double of the night, scoring once again. To finish off his hot night at the plate, Osuna drew a walk in the eighth, scoring for the third time. The trio of runs scored marked a season-high for Osuna, who is batting .261/.306/.503 with 18 doubles across 79 games.

Osuna is not in the lineup for Friday's game at Colorado.

J. Osuna - 3B

PIT

Osuna went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, a double, two RBI and two runs scored in the Pirates' 11-8 victory over the Rockies on Thursday.

The 26-year-old had just one hit in his last 11 at-bats coming into the game, but he snapped out of the brief funk with this multi-hit day that included his ninth home run of the season and his 15th two-bagger. He's now slashing a solid .293/.339/.561 to give him an even .900 OPS across 167 plate appearances.

J. Osuna - 3B

PIT

Osuna will start in right field and bat sixth Sunday against the Reds.

He'll crack the lineup for the third straight game, with Sunday's contest marking his second turn in right field during the series. Melky Cabrera currently tops the depth chart at that spot, but the 35-year-old could see his opportunities dwindle over the final few weeks of the season as the 54-75 Pirates prioritize younger options. Osuna would likely be the primary beneficiary if Cabrera is gradually phased out.

PIT

The Pirates reinstated Osuna from Major League Baseball's suspended list Tuesday.

Osuna had been inactive for the Pirates' previous five games while serving a suspension for his role in a July 30 benches-clearing brawl with the Reds. Now that Osuna is back in the fold, the Pirates will have reliever Kyle Crick serve his own three-game ban in connection with the same July 30 incident.

Osuna will begin serving his five-game suspension Wednesday, Nubyjas Wilborn of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Osuna was suspended at the beginning of August for his role in Pittsburgh's benches-clearing incident with the Reds, though he was able to continue playing while appealing the suspension. He'll be eligible to return Tuesday against the Nationals.

PIT

Osuna will start in left field and bat fifth Friday against the Cardinals.

He's started five of six games since the passing of the trade deadline, seeing time at three different positions. Osuna will play his fourth position (left field) Friday. He's reached base 16 times in his last 31 plate appearances and continues to earn playing time.

J. Osuna - 3B

PIT

Osuna went 2-for-2 with his eighth homer in Sunday's 13-2 loss to the Mets.

He replaced Josh Bell in the sixth inning of a blowout loss and continued his hot hitting. The 26-year-old has eight hits in his last 16 at-bats, including three home runs. General manager Neal Huntington stated at the trade deadline that Osuna will see more playing time over the final two months and he's since started two of three games. Osuna has appealed his recent five-game suspension for his involvement in a fight with the Reds and is waiting for the league's decision.

J. Osuna - 3B

PIT

Osuna may see additional playing time in the outfield following the departure of Corey Dickerson, who was traded to Philadelphia.

General manager Neal Huntington mentioned Osuna's name first, along with Pablo Reyes and Jason Martin, as young players who could see more outfield action with starter Gregory Polanco (shoulder) not due back for weeks. "It gives us some opportunities to give some young players who are going to be -- or could be -- key parts of our 2020-and-beyond clubs Major League experience," Huntington said. "It clears the deck for us as we look toward 2020." Osuna, a natural first baseman, has struggled in a small outfield sample size, but his bat has proven electric. The 26-year-old is slashing .292/.337/.607 with seven homers and 18 RBI in 96 plate appearances. Osuna is also appealing a five-game suspension for his role in the recent Pirates-Reds fight.

PIT

Osuna was suspended five games for his role in Tuesday's benches-clearing incident with the Reds, Jared Diamond of The Wall Street Journal reports.

Osuna has decided to appeal the suspension, so he'll be eligible to play while the appeal is being heard.

J. Osuna - 3B

PIT

Osuna smacked a three-run, pinch-hit home run Tuesday in the Pirates' 11-4 win over the Reds.

After logging three consecutive starts, Osuna moved back to the bench Tuesday but was still able to make an impact when he was summoned to hit for the pitcher's spot in the ninth inning. Osuna has now provided two of his seven home runs on the season in the past three days, but the minor surge is unlikely to result in him earning more playing time. All-Star Josh Bell is locked in as the Pirates' everyday first baseman, and Osuna is probably fifth in line for work in the outfield, at best.

K. Webster - DB

49ers re-signed CB Ken Webster to a one-year, $765,000 contract.

Webster, a two-year veteran, was an exclusive rights free agent, so his only options were to sign with the Niners or retire. The 252nd pick of the Patriots in 2019, Webster, 24, played in nine games during the 2020 season, returning a punt and recording two tackles in Week 10 against the Saints.

T. Chatwood - SP

Blue Jays signed RHP Tyler Chatwood to a one-year, $3 million contract.

Chatwood can earn another $2.5 million in performance-based incentives. The right-hander has worked as both a starter and a reliever in his career, but all reports indicate that he'll be a bullpen option for Toronto in 2021. He'll likely pitch in a multi-inning role that won't provide much fantasy relevance this coming season.

A. Castro - SP

TOR

Blue Jays designated RHP Anthony Castro for assignment.

The Blue Jays needed to make room on the 40-man roster for newly-signed Tyler Chatwood. Castro was claimed on waivers from the Tigers on December 7, so his time with the Blue Jays could be very brief if he's claimed. If he's not, he'll be organizational depth over the 2021 campaign. That was the case before the DFA, anyway.
