GOODYEAR, Ariz. — No news wasn’t necessarily good news Monday in the case of Cubs right fielder Seiya Suzuki’s right knee, which he injured Saturday night in Japan’s loss to Venezuela in the World Baseball Classic.
Suzuki, who walked off the field in Miami with a minor limp after sliding headfirst while unsuccessfully trying to steal second base, was still limping in the Cubs’ clubhouse Monday morning and wearing a soft brace. After being checked by a team doctor, he told teammate Michael Busch he was en route to an MRI exam.
