Player Outlook
Ke'Bryan Hayes had some up and down moments in 2023. Hayes took forever to get things going hitting .221 with just 2 homers through the end of May before waking up to hit .337 with 3 homers in June alone. An early back injury in July shelved him until mid-August and he returned with aplomb hitting .299 with 10 homers the rest of the way. His 15 homers in 2023 were just three fewer than he hit from 2020-2022, but his 10 steals was half of what he did the previous season at a time when most guys saw their totals jump a bit. He made positive gains in elevating the ball more frequently while not sacrificing his ability to make contact as he lowered his strikeout rate for a fourth consecutive season. Hayes has the tools to be a 20-20 player in 2024 if he can continue his growth from the late summer and get back to running. Either way, he feels prime for the breakout season many have wanted from him each of the past two seasons.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Sitting Wednesday amidst slump

    Rotowire
    Hayes is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels. Hayes will get a breather for the series finale after he had started in each of the Pirates' last 11 games. The 27-year-old went 8-for-42 over that stretch, bringing his batting average down to a career-worst .240 for the season. Jared Triolo will fill in for Hayes at the hot corner Wednesday.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Slugs first homer

    Rotowire
    Hayes went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Saturday's win over the Giants. Hayes jumped on a hanging sweeper from Tyler Rogers in the top of the 10th and sent it into the stands for his first home run of the season, going back-to-back with Bryan Reynolds as the Pirates took care of the Giants in extra innings. The third baseman has now registered two hits in back-to-back games and in three of his last six overall, batting .333 (8-for-24) over that stretch.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Not in Thursday's lineup

    Rotowire
    Hayes is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Brewers, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports. Hayes looks to be getting some routine maintenance for a day game after a night game. With Hayes on the bench, the Pirates will shift Jared Triolo over to third base Thursday and give Alika Williams a start at second base.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Back in action Friday

    Rotowire
    Hayes (back) is starting at third base and batting third Friday against the Red Sox. The 27-year-old sat out the past two games with lower-back tightness but is ready to rejoin Pittsburgh's starting nine after Thursday's scheduled off day. Hayes struggled offensively in the five games preceding the absence, going 3-for-17 with two doubles, five walks and six strikeouts.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Held out with back tightness

    Rotowire
    Hayes (back) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets. Hayes was a late scratch ahead of Tuesday's 3-1 loss due to lower-back tightness, so it's not a surprise he's not ready to play in the series finale Wednesday. He missed about a month of action last season with the same injury and still has to manage back issues on occasion. At this point, he's considered day-to-day. Jared Triolo will start at third base Wednesday in place of Hayes.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Scratched from lineup

    Rotowire
    Hayes was scratched from Tuesday's lineup versus the Mets. Hayes was initially slotted to start at third and hit third Tuesday. Oneil Cruz will enter the lineup at shortstop and bat seventh with Jared Triolo shifting to Hayes' position and spot in the order. The reason for the 27-year-old's removal from the Pirates' lineup is not yet clear.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Not starting Saturday

    Rotowire
    Hayes isn't in the Pirates' lineup for Saturday's game against the Orioles, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports. Hayes will get his first breather of the year after going 11-for-34 through Pittsburgh's first eight games. Jared Triolo will fill in at the hot corner while Hayes rests, allowing Alika Williams to start at second base and bat ninth.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Four consecutive multi-hit games

    Rotowire
    Hayes went 2-for-5 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored Sunday against the Marlins. Hayes has hit third in all four of Pittsburgh's games and has tallied two hits in each contest. While he hasn't homered, he has a pair of doubles as well as four RBI and four runs scored. Hayes has also shown impressive plate discipline, striking out just twice while walking four times across 23 plate appearances.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: On base three times Friday

    Rotowire
    Hayes went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double, two runs scored and an RBI in Friday's 7-2 win over the Marlins. The third baseman had an uncharacteristically rough night in the field, committing two errors, but Hayes made up for it with his bat. He's 4-for-7 to begin the season with two doubles and three walks, and if the improved launch angle he flashed in the second half of 2023 proves to be a permanent adjustment, Hayes has the athletic talent to deliver a 20-20 campaign or better.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Showing power early in spring

    Rotowire
    Hayes has hit two home runs and a double across his first 14 Grapefruit League at-bats. Hayes is locked into every day playing at third base thanks to his tremendous defense, but his fantasy value will turn on his ability to hit for power and swipe bases. He took a step forward in the former category in 2023, improving his average launch angle to 13.2 degrees, which resulted in a career-best .182 ISO. He's seemingly carried that approach over into his early at-bats this spring and could be in for a solid regular season while occupying a key position in the Pittsburgh lineup.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Not in Sunday's lineup

    Rotowire
    Hayes is out of the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Marlins. Hayes went 2-for-5 with two doubles and a run in Saturday's loss to Miami, which will end up being his final start of the year. The 26-year-old took a step forward at the plate in 2023 with 15 homers and a .273/.310/.455 slash line in 124 games.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Rest day Thursday

    Rotowire
    Hayes is not in the lineup for Thursday's game at Philadelphia. This appears to be a routine day of rest for Hayes, who went 2-for-5 with an RBI and two runs scored in the Pirates' loss to the Phillies on Wednesday. Jared Triolo will start at third base and bat third in Thursday's series finale.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Stays hot with homer

    Rotowire
    Hayes went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 7-5 win over Cincinnati. Hayes went yard off Reds left-hander Andrew Abbott in the top of the fourth inning before adding a single in the top of the seventh. It was the fourth straight multi-hit game for the 26-year-old third baseman, who has slashed .329/.357/.595 across 83 plate appearances in September while lifting his season OPS to .786.

He's produced one home run, five RBI and a stolen base in that span. The third baseman has been steady this season, batting .276 with a .771 OPS, 14 homers, 60 RBI, 59 runs scored and 10 stolen bases through 116 contests overall. With his three-hit effort Wednesday, he now has a career-high 126 hits for the season.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Supplies only offense in rout

    Rotowire
    Hayes went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 14-1 loss to the Cubs. The third baseman spoiled Chicago's shutout bid by taking Javier Assad deep in the third inning. Hayes is wrapping up a big second-half breakout, and since coming off the IL in early August, he's slashing .309/.349/.562 through 40 games with nine of his 14 homers on the season -- a power pace supported by his 93rd percentile average exit velocity, 89th percentile hard-hit rate and career-best 13.1 degree launch angle and 39 percent flyball rate in 2023.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Swats 12th homer

    Rotowire
    Hayes went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 4-2 victory versus the Brewers. Hayes broke a 2-2 tie with his fifth-inning solo shot, and that held up as Milwaukee didn't score again in the contest. The third baseman has gone deep four times over his past 11 games, a span in which he's slashing .348/.412/.696 with eight RBI and nine runs. Hayes is up to a career-high 12 homers on the campaign, five more than he hit over 560 plate appearances last season.

Hayes reached safely in each of his five plate appearances, finishing with his fourth career game of at least four hits. The third baseman's lone extra-base knock was a double that plated a run in the third frame. Hayes has been swinging a hot stick for about three weeks, racking up 11 multi-hit games in 19 contests since Aug. 8. He's batting .372 (29-for-78) with five homers, six doubles, one triple, 17 RBI and 12 runs over that span.

Hayes has seven multi-hit efforts with two homers and four doubles over his last 11 contests. His blast Saturday opened the scoring for the Pirates in the first inning, though it quickly went downhill for the home team. Hayes is up to 10 homers, 48 RBI, 45 runs scored and nine stolen bases while slashing .264/.303/.432 over 96 games this season.

  • Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Gets breather Tuesday

    Rotowire

Vinny Capra will play third base and bat seventh Tuesday as the Pirates take on veteran right-hander Adam Wainwright.
