Chicago, IL (SportsNetwork.com) – Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Mark Trumbo has a stress fracture in his left foot.<\/p>\n
Trumbo, who returned to Phoenix for a second opinion from team doctor Michael Lee, homered in the seventh inning of Monday’s 5-1 loss to the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. Trumbo then grounded out in the ninth inning, and he hasn’t taken an at-bat since.<\/p>\n
Trumbo had an X-ray on Tuesday, which didn’t reveal the break, but an MRI a day later showed the stress fracture along with plantar fasciitis, which Trumbo has been dealing with since spring training. He’s expected to be sidelined for an extended period of time.<\/p>\n
In 21 games this season, Trumbo is batting .210 with seven homers and 19 RBI. He landed in Arizona as part of a three-team trade involving the White Sox and Angels on Dec. 10 that sent Diamondbacks outfielder Adam Eaton to Chicago and pitcher Tyler Skaggs to Los Angeles.<\/p>\n
The 28-year-old slugger had spent his first four big league seasons with the Angels. He posted career-highs of 34 homers and 100 RBI over 159 games in 2013 despite batting just .234 with a whopping 184 strikeouts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
