Cruz and Horwitz Rehab Update | MLB News

Pirates’ star center fielder Oneil Cruz is making solid progress in Florida rehab after fracturing his left hand, with GM Ben Cherington saying he’s improving with gripping and swinging — but his return is still set for after the All-Star break. Meanwhile, first baseman Spencer Horwitz, recovering from a hamstring injury, is close to full baseball activities but still needs to regain running strength; his return is also expected post-break. Both key players are crucial to the lineup, and fans are watching closely as the team takes a cautious, healing-first approach.
