Cole Tucker - Back in clubhouse Tucker (illness) returned to the Pirates' clubhouse Friday, Justice delos Santos of MLB.com reports.

Impact Tucker was away from the team for several days after landing on the COVID-19 injured list Tuesday, but he's now been cleared to participate in team activities. It's not yet clear whether the Pirates will activate him from the IL prior to Friday's series opener against San Diego, but he seems to be close to being activated.

Roberto Pérez - Not in Friday's lineup Perez isn't starting Friday against the Padres.

Impact The 33-year-old was initially scheduled to get a day off Thursday before Andrew Knapp was scratched from the lineup due to an illness. Perez will retreat to the bench in Friday's series opener since Knapp is starting behind the dish and batting ninth.

Max Kranick - Works three innings Kranick (forearm) allowed one run (none earned) on one hit and one walk while striking out two across three innings in a rehab start with Triple-A Indianapolis on Thursday.

Impact This was Kranick's second rehab outing with Indianapolis and his longest appearance of the season as he works back from a forearm strain he sustained during the lockout. The 24-year-old made his major-league debut in 2021 but struggled to a 6.28 ERA with a 1.71 WHIP across 38.2 innings. He is likely to remain in Triple-A after being activated from the injured list, but given the current state of the Pirates' starting staff, he could be called upon to enter the big-league rotation at some point this season.
