Justin Bour Scratched With Back Spasms
7 years agoMiami Marlins first baseman Justin Bour (back) was scratched from spring action Saturday due to back spasms. The injury isn't considered serious, and the Marlins are just being cautious with the regular season quickly approaching. Bour will be the team's cleanup hitter in 2018 after hitting .289 with a career-high 25 home runs in 377 at-bats last year. While he won't have as many opportunities to drive in runs after the team traded away Giancarlo Stanton, Marcell Ozuna, Christian Yelich and Dee Gordon, Bour is still a power option in mixed leagues once the elite first base names come off the board.
