Red Sox's Isiah Kiner-Falefa: Gettings reps at first
Kiner-Falefa is getting work at first base early in spring training due to the absences of Triston Casas (knee) and Romy Gonzalez (shoulder), Sean McAdam of Masslive.com reports.
Casas continues to recover from major knee surgery last May, and Gonzalez has been shelved since September due to a left shoulder injury. Kiner-Falefa has typically served at second base, third and shortstop during his major-league career, but the veteran utility man could get some looks at first during spring training and early in the regular season behind Willson Contreras.

Red Sox's Isiah Kiner-Falefa: Lands one-year deal with Boston
Kiner-Falefa signed a one-year, $6 million contract with the Red Sox on Wednesday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Kiner-Falefa spent time with the Pirates and Blue Jays in 2025, slashing .262/.297/.334 with 40 RBI, 45 runs scored and 15 stolen bases across 459 regular-season plate appearances. The 30-year-old's career .262 batting average and ability to play three infield positions will help him to crack the starting nine occasionally, but he's unlikely to secure regular starts for the Red Sox.

Blue Jays' Isiah Kiner-Falefa: Grabbing another start Friday
Kiner-Falefa will start at second base and bat eighth in Friday's ALCS Game 5 against the Mariners.

Kiner-Falefa is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

Blue Jays' Isiah Kiner-Falefa: Claimed by Blue Jays
The Blue Jays claimed Kiner-Falefa off waivers from the Pirates on Sunday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
The 30-year-old was placed on outright waivers by the Pirates on Friday, and the Blue Jays will pay what remains of his $7.5 million salary for 2025. Kiner-Falefa was a lineup regular at shortstop and third base for Pittsburgh but is likely to operate as more of a true utility player in Toronto.

Pirates' Isiah Kiner-Falefa: Placed on outright waivers
The Pirates placed Kiner-Falefa on outright waivers Friday, Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Kiner-Falefa will remain with the Pirates if he goes unclaimed on waivers. The utility player is in the second year of a two-year, $15 million contract he signed with the Blue Jays in 2023. Kiner-Falefa has been Pittsburgh's everyday third baseman since Ke'Bryan Hayes was traded to the Reds near the deadline. He's still eligible to play for Pittsburgh while on waivers.

Pirates' Isiah Kiner-Falefa: Resting up Monday
Kiner-Falefa is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

Pirates' Isiah Kiner-Falefa: Tallies three hits
Kiner-Falefa went 3-for-5 with a double, two RBI and a run scored Sunday against the Reds.
Kiner-Falefa has started seven of Pittsburgh's last eight games at third base, with Jared Triolo serving as the primary shortstop. While he provides very little power, Kiner-Falefa has performed well across his last 10 starts by collecting 13 hits across 39 at-bats with eight RBI, nine runs scored and two stolen bases. While Liover Peguero has slowly begun to work his way into more playing time, Triolo looks more likely to be at risk of losing starts relative to Kiner-Falefa.

Pirates' Isiah Kiner-Falefa: On bench for series finale
Kiner-Falefa is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.
Liover Peguero will move over to shortstop Sunday after a massive three-homer game as the first baseman Saturday, leaving no room in the lineup for Kiner-Falefa. Even if Peguero is handed an everyday role at shortstop over the final two months of the season, Kiner-Falefa could retain playing time by shifting over to third base, where Pittsburgh has an opening after trading Ke'Bryan Hayes to Cincinnati.

Pirates' Isiah Kiner-Falefa: Knocks in three
Kiner-Falefa went 3-for-5 with a double, three RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 17-16 loss to the Rockies.
Kiner-Falefa delivered an RBI single in the first inning and followed that up with a two-RBI double four frames later. The performance extended his hitting streak to a modest four games, during which he's delivered five RBI and four runs scored. With Kiner-Falefa staying put with Pittsburgh through the trade deadline, he should remain the team's primary shortstop for the rest of the campaign.

Kiner-Falefa isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Giants.

Pirates' Isiah Kiner-Falefa: Knocks in two
Kiner-Falefa went 1-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored Monday against the Giants.
Kiner-Falefa narrowly missed a home run on a fly ball to center field in the second inning, though he still managed to drive in two after it bounced off the wall. Like many of the Pirates' regulars, he has struggled to produce much at the plate in July, going just 15-for-66 with six RBI and four runs scored across 21 games. Kiner-Falefa is also a trade candidate, so he may begin to lose out on playing time if he is dealt to a contender.

Kiner-Falefa singled in all four of his plate appearances Sunday, marking his first multi-hit effort in his last 12 starts. He still has a .274 average for the season, though his production has otherwise been empty -- he has just one home run, 23 RBI and 26 runs scored in 83 games.

Kiner-Falefa went 1-for-3 with two RBI in Wednesday's 5-0 win over the Cardinals.
Kiner-Falefa came through in a big spot, lining a two-run single in the seventh inning to extend the lead. The hit was his sixth in the past five games, and he continued a productive stretch in which the 30-year-old has gone 8-for-27 (.292) with a triple and five RBI over his last eight contests.
