Phillies second baseman Jeff McNeil went 2-for-3 and hit his first home run of the season on Monday, but he also went for X-rays after the game after being hit on the hand by a pitch. Despite the precaution, he is expected to be fine and could play on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
It sounds like McNeil managed to avoid any serious injury, which is always a concern when a batter is hit on the hand by a pitch. He has been red-hot for the Mets to start the season and should be considered day-to-day at this time.
