Miami was hopeful Christian Yelcih would remain healthy for the rest of the season after recently reinstating him from the disabled list. But according to MLB.com's Steve Wilaj, Yelich is day-to-day after reaggravating his knee.
"He fouled a ball off his ankle/shin [Wednesday], so it's a little tender there -- the knee a little bit as well," manager Dan Jennings said prior to Thursday's contest. "We knew it was going to be touch and go with [the knee]. But to his credit, he jumped back out there for a couple days, so now we just need to let the flare go out and get him back to normal."
This offseason, the Marlins are expected to consider moving the fences in. Dan Jennings favors the move.
