Donovan Solano, frustrated by hamstring injury, hopeful healing process will speed up
Donovan Solano wants to make it clear he’s not trying to throw anyone under the bus, but it shouldn’t surprise anybody he’s frustrated.
It’s been six weeks since Solano injured his left hamstring in a spring training game and he still hasn’t reached the point where he’s ready to begin a rehab assignment.
He spent a couple of weeks trying to push himself, participating in full pregame workouts, but it never felt quite right. He had a platelet-rich plasma injection in late-April and that led to soreness at the injection site. He recently bought a device for red light therapy, hoping it’ll speed up the process, but he has yet to resume baseball activities.
