Luis Urias to miss next 6-8 weeks with broken left hamate

The first setback of 2020 comes to the Milwaukee Brewers in the form of a wrist injury to newly acquired infielder, Luis Urias. The youngster is expected to miss 6-8 weeks with a fractured left hamate. That puts his status for Opening Day up in the air.

The Brewers’ likely shortstop for 2020 was playing well in winter ball in Mexico prior to the injury. In 141 plate appearances with Yaquis de Obregon, his slash line was .288/.400/.458. He last saw action in his team’s postseason series on January 6 and did not play again after that. The Brewers brought him stateside for further evaluation, and that exam did not go well.
