Reds' Matt McLain (shoulder) should be fine
Cincinnati Reds infielder Matt McLain (shoulder) is expected to be fine, per manager David Bell.
What It Means:
The Reds scratched McLain from Monday's lineup due to left shoulder soreness, but it doesn't sound like there's any concern for Opening Day. The 24-year-old is expected to start at second base and hit near the top of the order this season.
numberFire's models project McLain to record a .262 batting average and .790 OPS this season, with 21 homers, 27 doubles, 68 RBI, 75 runs scored, and 14 steals across 550 plate appearances.
