Sits against lefty Gamel is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Marlins.

Impact The lefty-hitting Gamel had been in the lineup in each of the Pirates' last three game, including Sunday and Monday when southpaws were on the mound for the opposition. However, with Pittsburgh facing a third straight lefty (Daniel Castano) on Tuesday, manager Derek Shelton may have decided it was an ideal time to give the veteran a day off. Diego Castillo will replace Gamel in Pittsburgh's outfield.

Delivers decisive home run Gamel went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Brewers.

Impact Gamel's two-out shot off reliever Brad Boxberger in the seventh inning proved to be the difference as Pittsburgh rallied back from a 3-0 deficit. The 30-year-old has gone 5-for-19 with three extra-base hits, three runs and three RBI in six games since returning from the injured list. Even with Milwaukee bringing a lefty (Eric Lauer) to the hill for Sunday's series finale, the lefty-hitting Gamel will stick in the lineup and bat seventh as Pittsburgh's starting left fielder.

Likely to return this week Pirates general manager Ben Cherington said he expects Gamel (hamstring) to return from the 10-day injured list during the team's two-game series with the Yankees that begins Tuesd...

Impact Gamel looks to have made a full recovery from his strained left hamstring after beginning a rehab assignment at Triple-A Indianapolis on June 23 and going 7-for-31 with two extra-base hits and two walks over his eight games with the affiliate. Prior to landing on the shelf May 29, the lefty-hitting Gamel enjoyed a regular spot in the lineup versus right-handed pitching, but he may have to settle for a reserve role upon his return from the IL with the Pirates having since installed rookies Jack Suwinski and Bligh Madris as their full-time starters in the corner outfield.
