Seattle Mariners second baseman Robinson Cano is expected to miss three to four weeks with a right toe fracture, reports MLB.com's Anthony DiComo

Cano sustained the injury after getting hit by a pitch in the seventh inning of the Japan All-Star Series. He suffered a non-displaced fracture of the baby toe on his right foot.

"It's part of the game, getting hurt," Cano, who is expected to be back by spring training, told MLB.com. "I'll be fine."

In his first season with Seattle, Cano hit .314 with 14 home runs and 82 RBI. The five-time All-Star signed a 10-year, $240 million with the Mariners in December 2013.
