DENVER —
“From what the doctors feel, it should help alleviate some discomfort,” Rockies manager Bud Black said before his team opened a three-game series against the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday night. “He should be back in a day or two resuming activities.”
The 33-year-old Bryant is hitting .154 this season with no homers, one RBI, 13 strikeouts.
Bryant has been limited to 170 games with Colorado since signing a $182 million, seven-year contract before the 2022 season. His injuries have included plantar fasciitis, a bone bruise in his foot, heel issues, a broken finger, a back strain, a lower rib contusion and back problems.
He’s hit .244 with 17 homers and 61 RBI with the Rockies. Bryant was the 2016 NL MVP as he helped the Chicago Cubs end a 108-year World Series drought.
