Morning Java — 05/19: McCann's thumb issue, Gore's lat scare, Lee's back spasms
James McCann (C, ARI) likely headed to the 10-day IL with a right thumb contusion after being struck by a grounder Monday; Adrian Del Castillo slides into the backup role behind Moreno. MacKenzie Gore (LHP, TEX) exited his start after 1 inning with left lat tightness, but Gore himself called it "more like a cramp" — Texas is likely to avoid an IL stint, though his next-start status remains GTD. Willy Adames (SS, SF) suffered a thumb contusion when a sharp grounder jumped on him in the 5th inning; Jung Hoo Lee (RF, SF) pulled before the 4th with back spasms, likely out Tuesday per Vitello. Arizona's catching depth thins to Garcia behind Moreno; San Francisco's outfield/infield runs thin with Adames day-to-day, Lee likely out, and Heliot Ramos (quad) + Logan Webb (knee) already on the IL.
