GOODYEAR, Ariz. — Stephen Piscotty will be shut down for the foreseeable future, possibly relegating the Oakland A’s outfielder to the injured list for the beginning of the regular season.
An MRI revealed that Piscotty’s intercostal strain had worsened. There is no timetable for his return. Manager Bob Melvin said he has “no idea” if he will be ready for the regular season, but he wouldn’t throw it out of the realm of possibility.
Error 0:
The silver lining is that the A’s have a plethora of viable outfielders ready to step up in Piscotty’s place.
