Ramon Laureano Goes On Injured List With Fractured Hand
1 year agoThe Oakland Athletics placed outfielder Ramon Laureano (hand) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to June 22) on Friday with a fractured right hand and recalled outfielder Conner Capel from Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move. Laureano will be eligible to return to the team on July 2 after initially injuring his hand last week, but fantasy managers should still probably not expect him back until after the All-Star break in mid-July. The 28-year-old Dominican has eight stolen bases on the year, but he's also hitting just .213 (43-for-202) with five homers, nine doubles, three triples, 17 RBI and 21 runs scored in 56 games. Laureano hasn't produced reliable counting stats with the lowly A's this year. Brent Rooker and Seth Brown will likely share playing time in right field until Laureano is back.
