Chirinos is slated to cover the bulk of innings after "bullpen day" opener Ryne Stanek exits Monday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
The right-hander scuffled over his last three appearances of August, allowing 13 runs (10 earned) across 16 innings. He's been utilized in a long-relief role during that stretch, a pattern that's expected to continue for the duration of the regular season.
