Overview
- Anthony, who exited Monday’s game in Detroit after his first at-bat, was removed with what the team called right wrist discomfort.
- Beat reporters noted a long visit with trainer Brandon Henry during the plate appearance, and Masataka Yoshida shifted into left field after the change.
- The club is expected to send Anthony for further evaluation, with a formal update to follow once testing clarifies the severity.
- The 21-year-old recently missed four games with upper-back tightness and ended last season early with a left oblique injury.
- He entered the day hitting .231 with a .357 on-base percentage and a .681 OPS over 29 games, a dip that looms larger for a 13-21 team counting on him at the top of the order.
