Manager Craig Stammen emphasized the need for caution after Pivetta’s dramatic departure from the mound. Currently, there is no timeline for his return, raising concerns that he may miss the entire 2026 season, particularly as he is owed $33.5 million over the next two years and his injury status could impact his player options.
