4/15/20 Manager Report and MLB news
C Reese McGuire has been diagnosed with a groin injury, however its a low grade strain and C McGuire insists he can play with the injury. Team trainer Dan Wright, who joined the Pirates this year with a great resume, thinks he is 50/50 of further aggravating the injury, but he doesn't think a severe injury will result if he still plays. I appeal to Manager Esposito to use C McGuire sparingly for the next few weeks.
