Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story has a small hairline fracture near his right wrist and won’t swing a bat for at least 10 days before he’s reassessed.
Manager Alex Cora said Story’s bone bruise is fine, but doctors found this issue while examining that one. He referred to it as “basically, like a strain,” and said the treatment doesn’t change.
“It’s something that’s not a surprise for us, because it’s the same kind of thing,” Cora told reporters Saturday.
One week prior, Cora said Story swung the bat and was doing “a lot better.” He noted that Story was “trending in the right direction,” but his prognosis quickly took a turn for the worse.
