Roman Quinn Heading To Injured List With Finger Laceration
Roman Quinn (hand) returned from a one-day stint on the injured list on Sunday. The reason for the brief stint was unspecified, but it was likely due to side effects from a COVID vaccine shot or contact tracing. Now, he is headed back to the injured list again, according to manager Joe Girardi. Quinn was hit in the right hand by a pitch in the second inning of Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. He initially stayed in the game, but was lifted an inning later after he was found to be bleeding. He was given nine stitches to seal a cut on his right index finger. Quinn has appeared in 24 games this year and is slashing .136/.269/.250 with two RBI and six runs scored.

Roman Quinn Signed By Rays
Roman Quinn on Thursday. The 29-year-old was released by the Kansas City Royals just a day earlier. The Rays will be Quinn's third team this season as he began the year with the Philadelphia Phillies. He will be one of the team's replacements to outfielder Harold Ramirez (thumb), who fractured his thumb right before the All-Star break. Quinn has slashed just .162/.225/.189 at the plate this year, but he's stolen 43 bases across 201 MLB games dating back to 2016.

Roman Quinn, Brad Peacock Released By Royals
Roman Quinn and right-handed pitchers Brad Peacock and Brandon Barker. Quinn began the 2022 season with the Philadelphia Phillies, but he was designated for assignment by the team in early June. After clearing waivers, he elected free agency and signed with the Royals. The 29-year-old hit just .162/.225/.189 over 23 games with the Phillies this year. Peacock, meanwhile, had been down at Triple-A Omaha all year. Over 35 relief appearances, he pitched to a stellar 1.64 ERA and 1.28 WHIP. Given those solid results, it seems likely the 34-year-old will land another minors contract soon.
