The left fielder missed Tuesday night's game against the Braves and may miss the game on Wednesday afternoon as well. Plus links on J.T. Realmuto, Carter Capps and Henderson Alvarez.
The injury bug struck again yesterday, when Christian Yelich was rested due to a tight back for the 8-2 win over Atlanta. Due to a noon game today, Yelich may be absent from the lineup again. Ichiro Suzuki manned left field last night and scored twice, adding another hit in the pursuit of 3000.
J.T. Realmuto has been called up from the minor leagues in light of Jeff Mathis' injury.
