Hayes (thumb/forearm) expects to be in the lineup Saturday, Justice delos Santos of MLB.com reports.

Hayes exited Thursday's game against St. Louis in the bottom of the first inning. He explained to reporters after the game that he experienced a cramp from his thumb down to his forearm, though the sensation went away quickly. The Pirates could opt to be cautious with Hayes, though it doesn't appear as if the injury will affect him in the long term. The team also has a day off Friday, which will give Hayes some additional rest.
