Matt Quatraro says Kyle Isbel has a small fracture in his nose but is available to play.
“The way I understand it, the bone just got cracked a little bit, but nothing that requires surgery or anything,” Quatraro said. “I don’t think there’s a need to wear anything [like a protective shield]. It’s almost like getting punched in the face when there’s swelling or a black eye. You’ve got to get it down.”
Michael Massey landed on the Injured List with a strained ligament in his back.
“I’ve had this (injury) a lot and have a pretty good experience with it,” Massey said after Friday’s game.
