Padres infielder Logan Forsythe suffered a setback with his plantar fasciitis during the spring that caused him to start the year on the disabled list. But it was discovered that the setback actually gave him an opportunity to begin healing more quickly, reports the San Diego Union-Tribune.
"I’m told there was a benefit to that setback," said Forsythe Tuesday. "The short-term affect was that I started the season on the disabled list. But the long-term benefit is that it gave me a jump start on the healing."
The plan for Forsythe is to remain in a protective boot until April 17. He will then begin rehab.
"We have to exhibit a lot of patience with Logan," said manager Bud Black. "There is no ETA."
