Lance Berkman
News: Houston All-Star first baseman Lance Berkman will sit out the Astros’ spring training opener against Washington because of a bruised left knee. Manager Brad Mills said Wednesday he is being cautious by holding Berkman out of Thursday’s game. Berkman injured the knee Sunday during team workouts as he was running the bases. Berkman fielded ground balls and took batting practice during Wednesday’s workout, but was told not to run. Berkman, who had arthroscopic surgery on his left knee in 1999, said it started aching in the offseason. He had an MRI on Monday that revealed the bruise, but the five-time All-Star said the swelling subsided after treatment Tuesday. “It’s still a little sore, but the good news from the MRI is that whatever the problem is, I’m not going to be able to make it worse,” Berkman said. “There’s no reason not to do as much as I can with it.”
