Jesse Winker Ruled Out for Rest of Season
Jesse Winker (back) will not play again this year, manager Carlos Mendoza announced Wednesday. Winker has been on the injured list with inflammation in his lower back since July 11. He began a minor-league rehab assignment in late August, but the 32-year-old suffered a setback shortly after that, leading the team to shut him down. With Winker's back continuing to bother him, he won't have enough time to return in 2025. Along with his back issues, Winker also missed significant time earlier in the season with an oblique strain. The injuries limited Winker to 26 games and a .229/.309/.400 line with one homer, 10 RBI, and eight runs scored over 81 plate appearances. He's due to become a free agent after the season, which is unfortunate timing on the heels of an injury-riddled campaign.
