Curtis Granderson Suffers Oblique Injury, Scratched From Lineup

It’s believed that Granderson strained his oblique while taking batting practice before the game. After being scratched, he was seen walking around and signing autographs with no sign of discomfort, implying that the injury isn’t major. However, oblique strains are tricky, and so we’ll see how Granderson progresses. It seems like he should only be out for a few days, but there does exist the possibility that he has to begin the season on the disabled list.

Granderson is 15-39 in Grapefruit League action, with three triples and three home runs.
