Dilson Herrera Unlikely To Play Defense Soon
7 years agoCincinnati Reds second baseman Dilson Herrera (shoulder) is unlikely to get back on the field in a defensive capacity anytime soon, according to manager Bryan Price. When Price was asked about when Herrera would play defense, he told reporters not in the next week. Herrera underwent shoulder surgery in July 2017 and is not quite ready to take the field as he works his way back. He has been back in a hitting capacity, seeing 17 at-bats and hitting .235 with three runs and two RBI this spring. The Reds could certainly use Herrera as a utility infielder this season, but he won't help much in that capacity until he's able to play defense.
