Andrew McCutchen To Be In Walking Boot For Six Weeks
1 year agoPittsburgh Pirates outfielder Andrew McCutchen (Achilles) will be in a walking boot for six weeks, which basically means his 2023 season has come to an end. The Pirates placed McCutchen on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday with a partial tear of his left Achilles. The 36-year-old veteran is set to hit free agency this offseason after posting a .256/.378/.397 slash line with 12 home runs, 19 doubles, 43 RBI, 11 stolen bases and 55 runs scored in 112 games and 473 plate appearances in his return to Pittsburgh in 2023. McCutchen's career is near its end, but he's said he would like to return for one more season. Wherever he lands, he's likely to continue serving as more of a full-time designated hitter.
