Maikel Franco exited Monday night’s game early with soreness in his elbow and is not in Tuesday’s starting lineup.
Not to worry though, Franco said things were improving Tuesday and interim manager Pete Mackanin lists him as day-to-day.
“It’s getting better today,” Franco said. “When I came in … I just went to the trainer’s room right away and they told me it’s getting better, too.”
No tests were performed by the trainer.
He doesn’t feel any soreness when he swings, just when throwing. He said this is the first time he’s experienced something like this - he’s never had elbow issues before.
