Reds Hope Jonathan India's Foot Issues Are Resolved Soon
10 months agoCincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (foot) didn't get a chance to work in the outfield this offseason as much as the Reds expected because of plantar fasciitis in his left foot, an injury that landed him on the injured list last summer and popped back up in the offseason. He was able to take batting practice and field ground balls on Tuesday at camp, but he's still going through a ramp-up program. "He said the foot feels fine and he feels no pain," general manager Brad Meador said. "It's just about building up endurance." The 27-year-old missed almost two months in 2023 due to the injury, so hearing that he's still not completely over the injury is bad news for a player whose fantasy value was already on the decline. In order to continue getting regular at-bats in 2024, India is going to have to move around defensively with youngster Matt McLain likely to see most of the playing time at the keystone.
