Spencer Steer is going on the 10-day IL. Here's what it means for the Reds

Cincinnati Reds manager Terry Francona's initial anxiety about Spencer Steer's injury was justified.

Steer exited the Reds' July 26 game against the St. Louis Cardinals mid-at bat due to concerns about his right wrist. Further medical evaluations July 27 resulted in Steer going on the 10-day injured list for a wrist sprain.

Francona said he became concerned when the typically-stoic Steer agreed with the manager's decision to remove him from the game.
