Andre Jackson - Allows four runs in defeat Jackson (1-3) took the loss Monday, allowing four runs on four hits and two walks over four innings against Washington. He struck out one.
Impact A CJ Abrams home run plated two for the Nationals in the third, then Jackson was removed after laboring through the fourth in allowing two more runs on two hits and two walks. Jackson had been pitching well since arriving in Pittsburgh with a 2.92 ERA in his first 24.2 innings, but his ERA has jumped to 5.51 after allowing 10 runs in 8.1 innings over his last two starts. He'll look to rebound in his next appearance, currently scheduled to take place over the weekend in a home series against the Yankees.

Joshua Palacios - Sitting against southpaw Palacios is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals.
Impact Along with fellow left-handed hitters Jack Suwinski and Alfonso Rivas, the lefty-hitting Palacios will retreat to the bench while southpaw Patrick Corbin takes the hill for the Nationals. Connor Joe will replace Palacios in right field and bat third.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jack Suwinski - Idle versus lefty Suwinski is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.
Impact Suwinski will join fellow left-handed hitters Alfonso Rivas and Josh Palacios on the bench for the series opener versus Washington with southpaw Patrick Corbin on the bump for the Nationals. While starting in each of the past seven games, Suwinski went 7-for-25 with two home runs, two doubles, two walks, two stolen bases, seven RBI and three runs.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Alfonso Rivas - Sitting against southpaw Rivas is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals.
Impact Though he'll hit the bench Monday against southpaw Patrick Corbin, the lefty-hitting Rivas may have recaptured a strong-side platoon role at first base. He started in each of the Pirates' last three matchups with right-handers, going 1-for-8 with a walk and a stolen base.

Joshua Palacios - Settling into large-side platoon Palacios went 2-for-4 with a triple Sunday against Atlanta.
Impact Palacios has been a primary beneficiary of Andrew McCutchen's (Achilles) absence, starting all four games against right-handed pitchers since McCutchen went down. Palacios has hit well in the limited sample since, collecting five hits across 16 at-bats with one RBI. His larger sample this season suggests that success may be short-lived, but he looks to be in line for regular at-bats across the final few weeks of the campaign.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Luis L. Ortiz - Limits damage against Atlanta Ortiz allowed one earned run on three hits and two walks while striking out none across 5.1 innings Sunday against Atlanta. He did not factor into the decision.
Impact Ortiz limited the damage against one of the tougher lineups in the league and held Atlanta without any extra-base hits. While his ability to suppress runs is positive, Ortiz lacked the ability to miss bats and racked up only five swinging strikes across 73 total pitches. That contrast has been present since he was promoted back to the majors Aug. 23, as he's maintained a respectable 4.12 ERA but has only a 14:12 K:BB across 19.2 frames.
