Gregory Polanco and Alen Hanson both left tonight’s West Virginia game with injuries. I’ve confirmed that Polanco’s injury was an ankle injury, while Hanson left with a hip flexor injury. Both players are considered day-to-day and were removed from the game for precautionary measures. They will each be reevaluated tomorrow.

Hopefully these aren’t season ending.
Not related to the post, but with several former H.S, pitching prospects at a standstill is this offseason likely to see an exodus of these guys from pro baseball?
