Don Kelly said that the fractures in Oneil Cruz's hand didn't get picked up on his initial x-ray and an additional MRI was requested after it tightened up on him and forced him to be scratched from Tuesday's lineup.
"What he's shown this year growth-wise on the field as far as development, and for him to battle through some things he's battled through this year, including the hand, and he wanted to go yesterday," Kelly said. "It just continued to tighten up. That's when we sent him for the MRI and that's what they found on the MRI. Unfortunately, it stinks."
