Yonder Alonso hoping he is past issues with right wrist

Padres first baseman Yonder Alonso has been having issues with his right wrist/hand since getting hit by a pitch late in May 2013. However, he is hopeful the issues are behind him coming off surgery in August, per U-T San Diego.

“It's a monkey off your back type of thing where you kind of just deal with it for a little while and finally put it behind you and go on to do the things I can do when I'm healthy,” Alonso said, adding that he was reporting with zero restrictions.

“(Injuries) are part of the game. You're going to have your bruises here and there. That's over with. Hopefully it's the last time I answer questions about my wrist. Knock on wood.”
