FAYETTEVILLE — Redshirt senior Carson Shaddy is unlikely to see his name in the lineup Tuesday or Wednesday as Arkansas opens a midweek series against No. 4 Texas Tech at Baum Stadium.
Shaddy was hit on the right hand by a pitch late in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader at Mississippi State and has been diagnosed with a right hand contusion. This injury comes just one week after Shaddy took a pitch off his left hand against South Carolina.
He was able to play through the pain last week against Missouri State, but Dave Van Horn will give Shaddy time off to heal his two swollen hands in hopes of the second baseman returning for this weekend's series against Alabama.
