The D-backs' first baseman spoke to reporters following his exit from last night's game and a recent trade for a first baseman.
The Arizona Diamondbacks lost their premiere first baseman in Monday night's contest, as Christian Walker exited early with an oblique strain. Arizona went on to win the game in thrilling walk-off fashion in the bottom of the ninth inning.Today, Walker caught up with the media to discuss his injury, recovery timeline, and comparison to a previous oblique injury suffered in 2021."Low-grade oblique strain. Good news for what it is. Pretty mild, shouldn't be too long.
"Not as bad, not as bad. Definitely less. Different side, but similar, internal oblique, front side for me. It's not rotating through, it's hitting the brakes on the front side. So a slightly different version than usual front sides, but another positive there, another silver lining.""Yeah, just had a hard time getting loose.
"No, I think to be back, yeah, overall. Definitely could be worse. When I say feeling fortunate that's what I mean, having been through something similar to this once, was a lot longer process. I think if it all goes as planned here, just maybe a few weeks.""Yeah, absolutely. That's almost weighing on me more than the injury is, you feel like you're letting your teammates down to some extent. I want to be out there in the fight with them.
