Rest-of-Season Projections
Signed a one-year contract with the Pirates in March of 2026.
Dealing with lat strain
The Pirates placed Dotel on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a right lat strain.
Analysis
Dotel gave up four earned runs in just 1.2 innings during his appearance Friday, and his strained lat may have been a factor in his poor performance. He'll now remain out until at least June 28, and the Pirates will bring up Brandan Bidois from Triple-A Indianapolis to fill the void in their bullpen.
