Drew Sits Out with Day-to-Day Injury
Wednesday, June 24th , 2009
It's a long season and everyone picks up some cuts and bruises along the way. The latest star to be suffering this year is J D Drew of the Los Angeles Dodgers, who suffered a sore back while running the bases in yesterday's contest against New York. While he could play through the injury, it's unclear whether or not the Los Angeles organization will risk that or simply sit him out for the one week the injury is expected to last.
Thus far this year Drew has hit .263 with 6 home runs and 32 RBIs.
