McLain’s Shoulder Soreness Keeps Him Out | Cincinnati Reds News

Matt McLain’s return to the field may be delayed after a minor left shoulder flare-up—same shoulder he rehabbed from surgery last spring. The Reds pulled him Saturday, citing soreness that began after a dive Friday night. He passed all medical tests and took swings in the cage, giving hope for a quick recovery. Manager Terry Francona called it a muscular issue, not structural, and the team’s cautious approach avoids risking another dive. No imaging was needed; rest is the plan. They’ll reassess Sunday—prioritizing long-term health over rushing back. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
