Wilson tweaks heel, out of lineup

As if an off-and-on left hamstring problem wasn’t enough for Mariners shortstop Jack Wilson to deal with, he can add a bruised right heel to his injury woes.


Wilson was on crutches on Wednesday, one day after being forced from Seattle’s game against Chicago after stepping awkwardly on first base while running out a bunt base hit. Wilson is day to day, manger Don Wakamatsu said.

“I don’t know how long it’s going to be,” Wakamatsu said. “We’ll just reevaluate it every day.”

Wilson has struggled at the plate since coming over from Pittsburgh in a July 29 trade. He’s hitting .224 in 31 games and also missed 10 games in mid-August with a Grade 1 hamstring tear.
