Francisco Cervelli Placed On Concussion Injured List
6 years agoThe Pittsburgh Pirates placed catcher Francisco Cervelli (head) on the seven-day concussion injured list on Sunday and recalled catcher Jacob Stallings from Triple-A Indianapolis in a corresponding move. Cervelli left the game on Saturday in the fourth inning after he was hit in the helmet on a backswing by Cody Bellinger. Stallings hit .275 with two homers and seven RBI with Indy and will back up Elias Diaz in Pittsburgh. The Pirates also recalled outfielder Jose Osuna from Triple-A. Cervelli, 33, is hitting just .193 with a home run and five RBI this year. He has an extensive history with concussions, so don't expect him to be back anytime soon.
