The Opener Jimnez Injuries GiantsDodger

As we enter the second week of the MLB regular season, here are three things to keep an eye on around the league: 1. Is Eloy Jimnez headed for the IL? White Sox DH left Sundays contest against the Tigers with what the team originally deemed left adductor sorene s and manager Pedro Grifol later called an adductor strain (per ). The adductors are muscles that run from the pelvic bone to the knee along the inner thigh. After the game, Grifol said, Well see tomorrow how [Jimnez] wakes up. Theyre going to do some testing on it Were not sure until tomorrow (per ). While we Jere Innala Jersey should know more about the severity of Jimnezs injury sometime today, notes that the oft-injured DH previously suffered an adductor strain as a minor leaguer in 2018. That particular injury kept him on the shelf for two weeks. that is being recalled from Triple-A, which seems to indicate an incoming IL stint announcement. 2. More teams waiting on injury updates: The White Sox arent the only team waiting on injury updates today. Two Giants players exited yesterdays action early, and the team said both would be reevaluated on Monday. First baseman suffered after falling into the dugout while trying to catch a foul ball. An inning later, starting pitcher left the game himself due to right hip discomfort. On the minor league side, Rays infielder (and star prospect) at Triple-A on Sunday. It looked exceptionally painful as the young infielder limped to first base before dropping to the ground, but there is no word yet on the severity of the injury. Like Flores and Jefferies, Caminero will undergo testing today. 3. The Giants take on the Dodgers: As the Giants wait for updates on Flores and Jefferies, they will head to Chavez Ravine to take on the Dodgers. San Francisco made a push to sign superstar this offseason, and now the Giants will get their first look at the two-time MVP playing for their long-time rivals. San Francisco was also a finalist to land NPB ace , although the Giants wont see him this week in L.A. For their part, the Dodgers get a chance to take on the new-look Giants. Although Giants president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi didnt land the two biggest fish of the offseason, he still transformed his teams roster, adding , , and to the top of the lineup and and to the starting rotation.
