Injury Notes: Correa, Kim, Feltner, Gallegos

By Leo Morgenstern | September 18, 2023 at 11:00pm CDT

Carlos Correa exited Monday night’s game against the Reds in the first inning following a flare-up of his plantar fasciitis. The shortstop told reporters (including Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com) that he felt a tweak in his heel as he ran to catch a pop fly.

Correa has been playing through the painful condition throughout most of the season. He was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis and a muscle strain in his left foot arch back in May but has avoided a trip to the injured list thus far. The two-time All-Star suggested he could sit out a few games to preserve his body for the playoffs, although he emphasized that neither he nor the Twins have determined a course of action just yet. He acknowledged that time off his feet would do him some good, but even so, he might prefer to keep playing until Minnesota has officially clinched the AL Central crown.

The 28-year-old is in the midst of a down year, slashing just .230/.312/.399. His injury could certainly be responsible for his dip in production, in which case a few days of rest would make even more sense. The Twins are all but certain to reach October, and now is the time for Correa to focus on restoring his health. That being said, it’s understandable why he’d want to take the field every day down the stretch. As the most accomplished and highest-paid player on the roster, the 2017 World Series champion has a leadership role to play in the Twins’ clubhouse.

In other injury news around baseball:

  • Ha-Seong Kim sits out a second straight game, as he continues to deal with discomfort in his abdomen. The Padres infielder told reporters, including Jeff Sanders of the San Diego Union-Tribune, that he isn’t sure why he feels so unwell, and he’s waiting on test results that he hopes will reveal the cause. Kim has been a bright spot in a difficult season for San Diego, hitting 17 home runs, stealing 36 bases, and playing excellent defense all around the infield. Unfortunately, he has been slumping as of late, with a .204/.291/.282 slash-line over the past month; it’s unclear if his slump has anything to do with his abdominal pain.
  • The Rockies are preparing to reinstate starting pitcher Ryan Feltner ahead of Tuesday’s contest with the Padres, reports Thomas Harding of MLB.com. Feltner has been on the 60-day IL since late May, as he recovered from a concussion and a fractured skull. The Rockies have an open spot on their 40-man roster, so they can reinstate the righty without making a corresponding move. However, they’ll still need to free up a spot for him on the active roster. Feltner was off to a rough start in 2023 (5.86 ERA in eight starts) even before a liner off the bat of Nick Castellanos nearly ended his season. Suffice it to say, it’s remarkable that he’ll be returning to the field after such a scary injury.
  • The Cardinals have placed Giovanny Gallegos on the 15-day IL with right shoulder rotator cuff tendonitis. Jake Woodford was recalled from Triple-A to take his spot on the active roster. The team told reporters (including Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat) that the injury doesn’t seem serious, but they’re playing it extra safe as the season draws to a close. Indeed, they might have shut the righty down even sooner, but Gallegos wanted to ensure that he had properly addressed the pitch tipping issues he was having earlier in the season.

      Hopefully not food poisoning or anything like that.

    I want Kim back and Manny playing. I’m not giving up on the Padres making the playoffs. Okay, I know it’s a long shot, but this team is capable of winning ten in a row.

    Might be what it takes, But wouldn’t they be THE surprise guest at the October dance-a-thon if they pull it off.

    Gonna be crushed if, come season’s end, they find themselves on the outside looking in by one lousy loss.

    Keep the faith, Padre fans. Miracles do happen.

      Capable of winning 10 in a row? Their longest winning streak this year has been four games in a row.

      I guess the silver lining is you won’t be crushed by them being on the outside looking in by only one loss.

      The longer shot is that the Cubs, Reds, Marlins and Giants would all have to lose 10 in a row.
      The Cubs just lost 5 in a row.

      And if Paleo is right, Padres are currently on thier longest winning streak of the year at 5 in a row.

        The Padres do not play well under pressure. That’s why they only started winning when they’re out of the race. The Oakland A’s had more winning streaks when it mattered than did the S.D Padres.

    Twins should call up Brooks Lee. Give Correa some rest and Lee some exposure.

    Do you guys remember the absurd Cortea vs Turner debates last year? Well, performance this year makes clear Turner was the superior player.

      Seager – Do you remember the free agent shortstop super class of 2021-2022? Remember the last two that signed during that offseason were Story and Correa?

      We are seeing why.

        Story and Correa were separate off-seasons. Story and Baez were last in 2022.
