Pina is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

Pina will be on the bench for the fifth straight contest and for the 10th time in 12 games while Yasmani Grandal continues to dominate the playing time behind the dish. Though Pina brings most of his value to the Brewers on the defensive end, the lack of steady action seems to have made him more unproductive than usual at the plate. Pina is batting just .167/.278/.346 across 90 plate appearances this season.

Pina went 2-for-3 with a homer, a walk and two RBI in Saturday's loss to the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Pina took advantage of his first start in over a week with a big day at the plate. His home run -- his third of the season -- was a solo shot off Madison Bumgarner that opened the scoring in the third inning. Despite the strong showing, he's still hitting just .172/.273/.362 on the season and is unlikely to be stealing at-bats from Yasmani Grandal any time soon.

Pina (hamstring) was activated from the injured list Saturday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pina had been out since mid-May with a hamstring strain. He'll return to his backup role behind Yasmani Grandal. Gio Gonzalez (arm) landed on the injured list in a corresponding move.

Pina (hamstring) is expected to rejoin the Brewers in Pittsburgh this weekend, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pina has been sidelined since May 15 with a hamstring injury. He's played in two rehab games with Low-A Wisconsin, going 1-for-6 with a pair of RBI in those contests. The backstop is set to play once more for the Timber Rattlers on Thursday before rejoining the Brewers in Pittsburgh.

Pina (hamstring) will start a rehab assignment with Low-A Wisconsin on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Pina was sent to the injured list May 15 due to a right hamstring strain, but he's been given the green light to embark on a rehab stint. The Brewers have not issued a concrete timetable for his return.

Pina (hamstring) went through a full workout Saturday and is nearly ready for game action, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pina is already eligible to return from the injured list, but it appears as though he'll need at least a few more days. It's unclear if he's expected to require a rehab stint before returning to Milwaukee.

Pina, who was officially placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday, returned to Milwaukee to undergo further evaluation on his strained right hamstring, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Brewers don't fear that the injury Pina suffered Wednesday is especially serious, but he'll be sent in for an examination with the hope it confirms that he's merely dealing with a low-grade strain. In the meantime, Milwaukee called up Jacob Nottingham from Triple-A San Antonio to serve as the understudy to top catcher Yasmani Grandal.

Pina will be placed on the 10-day injured list after leaving Wednesday's game with a hamstring injury, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pina was removed Wednesday at Philadelphia with right hamstring discomfort, but it's unclear how he sustained the injury. David Freitas or Jacob Nottingham will likely be called up to serve as the backup catcher while Pina is on the shelf.

Pina exited Wednesday's game at Philadelphia with right hamstring discomfort, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pina was replaced in the field for the bottom of the fourth inning, but it remains unclear how he sustained the injury. The 32-year-old should be considered day-to-day until more is known on the injury. Yasmani Grandal has taken over behind the plate for Milwaukee.

Pina went 1-for-4 and hit his first home run of the season in Wednesday's victory over the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Pina tied a career high with nine home runs last year, but he has had far fewer opportunities to knock the ball out of the park this season while serving as the backup catcher behind Yasmani Grandal. Pina will continue starting every few days when Grandal needs a break, but expect Grandal to see the bulk of the work behind the plate like he has up to this point.
