Despite dealing with bone chips in his right wrist since April, Nationals infielder Danny Espinosa refused to blame his poor hitting on the injury. 

"I won't ever use this as an excuse," he told reporters after the injury was announced. "I haven't hit lately."

Espinosa is batting .150 in May and has three hits in his last 10 games. He will be shut down for a few days to rest before a determination on his long-term availability is made. Surgery is not currently being considered.
