3 years agoPittsburgh Pirates shortstop Kevin Newman (groin) was removed from Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers due to groin tightness. He was bothered by a groin issue earlier in the year, which caused him to miss three games. The 28-year-old went 2-for-3 with two RBI and a run scored before exiting. The severity of Newman's injury is unknown, and he is considered day-to-day. Fantasy managers should monitor the situation closely as Pittsburgh could promote top prospect Oneil Cruz if Newman misses an extended period. Stay tuned.--Brad Camara - RotoBaller
