ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Wander Franco left his second rehab game early due to issues with his right hand.
He was slated to play seven innings at shortstop for Triple-A Durham on Monday, but he “felt it a little bit” in his second at-bat and was pinch-hit for in the fifth, manager Kevin Cash said. Franco went 1 for 2, with a single and groundout, before exiting.
Cash doesn’t plan for Franco to get X-rays, and the Rays will see how Franco feels before determining his status for Wednesday. The Bulls have an off-day Tuesday.
