Brewers: Why is Luis Urias having his wrist checked out?

It’s believed that Luis Urias suffered a wrist injury while playing winter ball in Mexico. The extent isn’t known yet, but it’s concerning enough for the Brewers to fly Urias in to have a specialist check him out. Could this delay the start of Urias’ career in Milwaukee?

How was Urias acquired?

Urias came to the Milwaukee Brewers with starter Eric Lauer from the San Diego Padres in a trade for outfielder Trent Grisham and starter Zach Davies. It was widely believed that Urias was brought in specifically to push Orlando Arcia for the starting shortstop role.
