Cubs right fielder Seiya Suzuki has been sidelined since spraining his finger when he jammed it sliding into second base May 26.
“There’s no real timetable,” Ross said. “But we’re just going to be patient with it.”
There have been no discussions yet about whether Suzuki might need a minor-league rehab assignment before returning, Ross said. Suzuki, the former Japanese batting champ and Gold Glove outfielder, signed a five-year, $85 million deal in March, then was named National League Player of the Week the second week of the season and NL Rookie of the Month for April.
“It’s going to take a while, and candidly I’m OK with that,” Hoyer said. “This year is really important for him to assimilate and face big-league pitching and figure out what he needs to do going forward in his career. And coming back and having this nagging injury and not be able to do it well doesn’t make a lot of sense.
“He needs to come back when he can really compete at this level, and it’s hard to do that when your finger is swelling up all the time.”
