Starling Marte (migraine) scratched Thursday; J.B. Shuck replaces
Marte has been scratched from the Pittsburgh Pirates original confirmed lineup and will not start in Thursday's season opener against the Cincinnati Reds due to a migraine. He’ll be replaced in the lineup by J.B. Shuck, who will now patrol center field and slot into the seventh spot in the order, which bumps Melky Cabrera all the way up to the two-hole. However, the remainder of the Pirates lineup will stay intact offensively as they face off against right-hander Luis Castillo on the road this afternoon.
J.B. Shuck scratched Wednesday; Lewis Brinson replaces
Shuck has been scratched from the Miami Marlins original confirmed lineup and will not start in Wednesday's matchup against the St. Louis Cardinals due to a presently unspecified reason, though a clerical appears to be the blame. He'll be replaced in the lineup by Lewis Brinson, who will play center field and slot directly into Shucks's vacated eighth spot in the order, which enables the remainder of the Marlins lineup to stay intact as they face off against right-hander Jack Flaherty on the road this evening.
