Garcia’s Cortisone Shot and Royals Struggle | Kansas City Royals News

Published 2 weeks, 5 days ago
Description

Maikel Garcia, the Royals’ third baseman, got a cortisone shot to ease a lingering muscle issue in his left hand that’s been stinging during swings since late June. The injection targets a stubborn spot that hasn’t healed, and he’ll need four to five days off before slowly ramping back up. His absence has hurt the team—KC is 13-21 since he went down—and Garcia’s .261 batting average with three homers this season reflects the toll. Manager Matt Quatraro hopes for a swift return after another five days of rehab, but with 12 players on the IL, the Royals are counting on him to regain full form soon.
