Nelson Cruz, who was not in the starting lineup yesterday, and has not played since the 13th of September now, has been dealing with inflammation in his eye, as Davey Martinez said in his pregame meeting with reporters before the second of two with the Orioles in D.C. earlier this week.
“He’s got inflammation in his eye. They gave him some drops, so hopefully it’ll help him over the next 24 to 48 hours,” Martinez explained.
“It’s a weird thing. I mean, he went and saw an eye specialist, and it’s just inflammation. So we’ll see how he feels after he takes these drops, but he’s gonna be day-to-day.
