Marlins' Adeiny Hechavarria: Scratched as precaution

Hechavarria was scratched from the lineup prior to Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Cardinals due to a sore back, Andre Fernandez of the Miami Herald reports.

Analysis:

Manager Don Mattingly stated that the scratch is just a precaution, so it doesn't appear that this is anything too serious at all. Hechavarria is slated to open the season as the Marlins' starting shortstop.
