Martin Prado Has Three-Hit Night, Leaves Game with Hamstring Injury
7 years agoOn the same night Miami Marlins third baseman Martin Prado had his first three-hit performance in over a year, Prado suffered what MLB.com's Joe Frisaro reports is a "significant" hamstring injury. Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald adds that an ultrasound of Prado revealed "significant gaps" in hamstring fibers and muscle. Prado finished the game 3-for-4 with two doubles before suffering the injury while running out a ground ball in his final at-bat. It sounds like this will be a long-term and potentially season-ending injury for Prado, who hadn't been hitting well to begin with since returning from the disabled list on April 27. With Prado out, Brian Anderson will likely make the move from right field back to third base which opens up more playing time for Cameron Maybin. At this point between the injury and his previous lackluster performance, Prado should not be owned in any leagues at all.
