Seager fractures hand on HBP, will go on IL
LOS ANGELES -- The Dodgers have overcome an avalanche of injuries so far
this season, but now theyre going to have to be without Corey Seager
for an extended period of time, as X-rays showed the star shortstop
suffered a fractured right hand in Saturdays 7-0 win against the Marlins.
The Dodgers didnt give a timetable for Seagers return, but itll
certainly be an extended absence following the diagnosis.
I think that were all concerned about him and the extent of the injury,
said Dodgers manager Dave Roberts. Obviously, you dont want to lose
any player for an extended period of time.
In the fifth inning, Seager was hit in the right hand by left-hander
Ross Detwiler. Seager immediately grimaced in pain and was taken
out of the game after a quick conversation with Roberts and the
training staff. Gavin Lux moved from second base to shortstop
to replace Seager, with Sheldon Neuse entering the game to play second.
After the game, Roberts said Seager was in some pain and
the hand had already swelled up. It didnt take long for additional
results to reveal that it was a severe injury.
Like most of L.A.'s hitters, the 2020 National League
Championship Series and World Series MVP was in an extended
slump over the last few weeks, but had started to break out of it
and perform like the Dodgers were accustomed to seeing.
Seager has been a huge part of the Dodgers success and as
the teams No. 2 hitter all season. Hes hitting .362 with four homers
this season, but had hit .375 (9-for-24) with four RBIs in his
last six games.
The Dodgers already lost Edwin Rios for the remainder of the
season with a shoulder injury and AJ Pollock was placed on
the 10-day injured list on Saturday with a left hamstring
strain. Cody Bellinger and Zach McKinstry have also been
on the shelf for over a month. Los Angeles did acquire
infielder/outfielder Yoshi Tsutsugo from the Rays and has
reportedly agreed to terms with future Hall of Famer Albert
Pujols, though that deal has not yet been confirmed
by the team.
In Seagers absence, the Dodgers will rely on Chris Taylor
and Lux at shortstop. Neuse could also get more playing
time at second base, filling in for Lux. Neither Tsutsugo
or Pujols will be activated before Sundays game, so the
Dodgers will have to lean on someone from their Minor League
system to fill Seagers spot on the roster.
As far as continuing to move forward, we have to, Roberts
said. And we did tonight, and a lot of good things
came from tonight.
今天馬林魚VS道奇的比賽，5局下 Ross Detwiler對Seager投出觸身球
Seager的右手腕因此骨折，Seager缺席期間將由Lux或是Taylor
來輪流擔任游擊手，另外也有可能從小聯盟拉新人上來
