We’re looking to play long-term this season, so we thought this was the best thing to do.“Yesterday, [it] felt a little stiff and kind of locked up. But as I got treatment and did some exercises, moving around, it felt a lot better. Today, came in, felt a lot better."cstseems more like back spasms than a herniated disc

Then he fouled off 2 pitches off his leg in a week in July. I'm sure those things didn't help, but I don't know if they had much to do with how bad he was in August and September. The late season struggles seemed far more mental than physical.

His approach needs to improve obviously, but if he had a disc issue, I’d be more confident that could be fixed.
