Top Nick Gonzales News

  • Pirates' Nick Gonzales: Still in boot

    Gonzales (ankle) is still wearing a boot but is partially weight bearing, MLB.com reports.

    Gonzales fractured his left ankle on Opening Day while rounding the bases after hitting a home run. He can play catch from a seated position and has been cleared to run on an anti-gravity treadmill, but his return to game action remains at least a few weeks away.

  • Pirates' Nick Gonzales: Placed on IL due to ankle fracture

    The Pirates placed Gonzales on the 10-day injured list Friday due to a non-displaced fracture in his left ankle, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

    Gonzales appeared to injure himself when he smacked a two-run home run in the sixth inning of Thursday's game against the Marlins. Further tests revealed a fracture in his left ankle, and he will head back to Pittsburgh to see a foot specialist to determine a rehab schedule, per Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Enmanuel Valdez was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis in a corresponding move, and Adam Frazier should get starts at the keystone for as long as Gonzales is sidelined.

  • Pirates' Nick Gonzales: Exits with ankle injury

    Gonzales was removed from Thursday's game versus Miami due to left ankle soreness, Danny Demilio of PittsburghBaseballNow.com reports.

    Gonzales smacked a two-run homer in the sixth inning of Thursday's contest but seemingly injured himself in the process, as he had a noticeable limp while rounding the bases. He's being considered day-to-day for now, though the Pirates' medical staff will continue to keep an eye on him. Adam Frazier entered Thursday's contest as Gonzales' replacement and would be the favorite to start at second base if the latter needs to miss any amount of time.

  • Pirates' Nick Gonzales: Locked into second base job

    Gonzales is expected to serve as the Pirates' primary second baseman in 2025, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

    Gonzales got his first prolonged look in the majors in 2024 and held his own by posting a 94 wRC+ and .709 OPS. That performance combined with his prospect pedigree sets him up as a key contributor for the 2025 season, with the majority of his playing time likely coming at second base. Across 28 plate appearances this spring, Gonzales has struck out only 14.3 percent of the time, though that's also come with just two extra-base hits.

  • Pirates' Nick Gonzales: Homers in two straight

    Gonzales went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday against the Yankees.

    Gonzales took Luis Gil yard to record a home run in his second consecutive game, his only two long balls since returning from the injured list Aug. 26. He's still had an impressive close to the regular season, maintaining a .308 batting average with 10 RBI and 13 runs scored to go along with a 14.8 percent strikeout rate in his last 28 appearances. While not a prolific power hitter, Gonzales should be locked into a starting role for the Pirates in 2025.

  • Pirates' Nick Gonzales: Taking seat Tuesday

    Gonzales is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Brewers.

    It's a routine day off for Gonzales, who had started the previous six contests for the Pirates. Nick Yorke will play second base in Tuesday's series opener.

  • Pirates' Nick Gonzales: Records two hits, swipes bag

    Gonzales went 2-for-4 with a triple, a run, an RBI and a stolen base in Thursday's 3-2 win against St. Louis.

    Gonzales tripled and scored the contest's first run in the fourth inning, then plated the game-winning RBI on a single in the eighth. The second baseman notched his second straight multi-hit game, and he now has an extra-base hit in three straight contests. Through 17 games in September, Gonzales is batting .302 (19-for-63) with seven runs, seven RBI and two stolen bases.

  • Pirates' Nick Gonzales: Exiting lineup Monday

    Gonzales is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

    Gonzales will head to the bench as the Pirates make room in the lineup at second base for prospect Nick Yorke, who was called up from Triple-A Indianapolis. Though the Pirates will likely give Yorke a look in a near-everyday role over the final two weeks of the season, he has experience at shortstop, third base and all three outfield spots, so he won't necessarily bump Gonzales out of the everyday lineup. Gonzales had started in all but two of the Pirates' previous 19 games following his return from the injured list Aug. 26, slashing .300/.347/.343 during that stretch.
