Fantasy Impact:

Brutal. Burdi has dealt with injuries for years now and had finally gotten a chance at a prominent role in Pittsburgh's bullpen. The team didn't provide any other details at this time but he can obviously be dropped everywhere. Keone Kela (COVID-19) will be the Pirates' closer once he returns.
