Franchy Cordero hadn’t been playing much the last few days, which seemed only slightly curious until rumors started to spread yesterday that something might not have been right with his arm. By the end of Sunday it was no secret that he was headed to the disabled list, and that Hunter Renfroe would be coming back up to the big league team.
Franchy’s injury has been reported as “forearm soreness”, which tends to make baseball fans cringe. The symptom could be just fatigue or a tweak, or it could be a precursor to elbow issues that I don’t even want to think about.
