Charlie Goldsmith, Cincinnati EnquirerCincinnati Reds infielder Mike Moustakas tried to play through his heel injury multiple times.
After Moustakas jammed his foot into first base on Saturday against the Colorado Rockies, Moustakas lobbied Reds manager David Bell to appear in Sunday’s game. On Monday and Tuesday, Moustakas pinch-hit and played first base off the bench against the San Francisco Giants.
After further evaluation, on Thursday the Reds put Moustakas on the 10-day injured list with a right heel contusion.
“I was surprised,” Bell said. “I was positive based on the feedback I was getting from (Moustakas). I think he just wanted to play so bad. I know he was doing everything he possibly could to get back on the field, to get back in the lineup.”
Bobby Nightengale, Cincinnati EnquirerUpdate on Mike Moustakas
Mike Moustakas took steps forward in his recovery from a right heel contusion, but he still has yet to start running.
"He had a couple of his best days with big jumps forward in his recovery," Bell said. "He's still running in the water, but the mobility, everything's coming back. He's working again (Saturday), off (Sunday) and see him on Monday and have a better sense of when he can get back on the field in the lineup."

that was an encouraging update. (being serious, not sarcastic, glad to hear he's progressing)
[Phil ] Castellini celebrated the team's farm system and noted the team had promising prospects who would one day be great Reds -- and then joke then they'd be ex-Reds, saying "of course we're going to lose them". #SellTheTeamBob

So much for all the drama I made in this thread. But also, like, what the heck kind of heel bruise is this???

Bobby Nightengale The Cincinnati EnquirerManager David Bell said Sunday that Moustakas (heel) is about a week away from starting a rehab assignment,
Moustakas landed on the 10-day injured list May 20 with a bruised heel. The club was hoping he would be able to return after the minimum 10 days, but he's taken a bit longer to progress. Given Bell's update, the infielder should be on track to return to the Reds' lineup by mid-to-late June, assuming he doesn't hit a snag in his recovery.
Charlie Goldsmith, The Cincinnati EnquirerReds manager David Bell said Sunday that he anticipates Nick Senzel (knee) will return from the 10-day injured list in mid-July.
The Reds will wrap up their first-half schedule July 11, so the team is presumably hopeful that Senzel will be ready to go after the All-Star break. Senzel is just over a week removed from undergoing arthroscopic surgery to clean out cartilage in his left knee.
that's great news about moose. last i heard he was "a ways off" or whatever they said on the TV broadcast. him starting a rehab assignment next week sounds encouraging. and we'll get votto back tomorrow.
Sounds like Moose is at least 2 weeks away....not exactly the best news IMO.

Bruised heels are apparently quite the disablement.
Gonna think twice next time I feel like tap dancing.

Mike Moustakas did some running yesterday. David Bell said "that was really encouraging to hear." No timetable set yet for his return.
I wonder they mean like an Achilles bruise or something, because I’ve been clowning on this ever since half the team went down with it after the Rockies series, but I woke up yesterday with my left Achilles feeling pretty bruised and I can barely walk over the last day or so. I guess that’s what I get!
