Speaking of players who were supposed to be awesome but keep raining on your fantasy baseball parade due to various injuries...
Pittsburgh Pirates second baseman Freddy Sanchez was scratched from Wednesday's lineup about an hour before gametime due to some irritation in his right eye. He had a visit to the doc's office earlier in the day to have unidentified debris removed from the eye.
Sanchez was last year's National League batting champion with a .344 average, and is a great player when there's nothing wrong with him. But he missed most of Spring Training and the club's first five games with a strained right knee, leading some to wonder how secure his health is.
The eye thing is not believed to be serious and he should return to the Pirates' lineup tomorrow afternoon against the Houston Astros.
