Pirates promote outfielder after Ryan O’Hearn injury

The Pittsburgh Pirates are adding outfielder Jhostynxon García, nicknamed “The Password,” to their roster due to Ryan O’Hearn’s right quad strain, which will sideline him for about a month. García, acquired from the Boston Red Sox in an offseason trade, has struggled at Triple-A but has shown promise against left-handed pitching. He will likely share time in the outfield with Jake Mangum and Billy Cook, providing a power option off the bench. The Pirates’ outfield has performed well against lefties, bolstering their lineup.
