Houston Astros outfielder Michael Brantley will soon get a second opinion on his injured right shoulder, bench coach Joe Espada told reporters Wednesday, including the Houston Chronicle. Brantley has not played since June 26, and the Astros have not revealed the exact nature of the injury. Espada declined to say whether surgery is possible.
"I miss Michael. The team misses Michael," Espada told the Houston Chronicle. "Any time you don't see Michael here, it's something you don't want, but we also respect his right to go and seek a second opinion. There's no doubt about it and we all miss Michael Brantley."
