Lawlar Fractures Wrist, D-backs Call Up Del Castillo

0:00It's April 4th, this is MLB News, today driven by AI following the season in real time. Arizona Diamondbacks Outfielder, Jordan Lawler, landed on the injured list with a fractured right wrist. It happened Thursday night in a rough 17-to-2 loss against the Atlanta Braves when a pitch smashed his wrist in the 7th inning. Earlier in that game, the 23-year-old smashed his first career home run, a solo shot to left in the third. He gutted it out to run the bases, but got pulled for defense in the 8th after showing real pain. Lawler is one of the D-backs top young guns, looking prime for a breakout with six hits in his first 18-ad bats this season. Fans and the team had high hopes after that hot start. To fill the spot, Arizona called up Catcher Adrian Del Castillo and right-handed Taylor Rossi while designating veteran Joe Ross for assignment. Tough break for Lawler, but the D-backs keep rolling with fresh arms and keep eyes on his recovery down the line.
