Spring training hasn’t even begun and the Pirates already have a major concern.
Multiple outlets report that new first baseman Spencer Horwitz won’t be able to go for the start of camp when the full squad reports next Monday. Horwitz has a wrist injury that required surgery and is still in a cast, according to reports. He was acquired from Cleveland for Luis Ortiz and two minor league pitchers in December.
The team hasn’t said anything yet about Horwitz’s availability and the sources do not say when he had surgery.
