What's next for Fernando Tatis Jr.? How injury impacts his season, contract and the Padres

Fernando Tatis Jr.'s arrival at spring training came with unexpected news: During the offseason, the San Diego Padres All-Star shortstop suffered a broken left wrist that likely will need surgery.

Tatis apparently suffered the injury months ago but felt it worsen when he began preparing to report, according to San Diego general manager A.J. Preller.

How did this happen? What does it mean for the megadeal Tatis signed last spring? And where do the Padres go from here?

ESPN MLB reporters Alden Gonzalez and Jesse Rogers weigh in on everything you need to know about the fallout from Tatis' injury.
