One of several highlights during Tuesday’s annual Cactus League media day occurred when GM Farhan Zaidi suggested that the Dodgers intend to find more days off for first baseman Adrian Gonzalez over the course of the regular season.
Recently, Gonzalez has been suffering from a minor injury in his right elbow which was eventually diagnosed as a mild form of tendinitis. Gonzo initially hoped to compete in the World Baseball Classic in March, but his participation is now in jeopardy pending another examination from team doctors in a few weeks. In the meantime, he’s prohibited from even swinging a bat.
