Victor Caratini To Miss 4-6 Weeks
6 years agoA CT scan confirmed that Chicago Cubs catcher Victor Caratini fractured the hamate bone in his left hand on Thursday night. He's expected to be out four to six weeks, and the surgery is scheduled for Monday. Caratini has been placed on the injured list and the Cubs have promoted catcher Taylor Davis from Triple-A Iowa in a corresponding move. It's a tough break for Caratini, as he was hitting .571 (8-for-14) with a homer and five RBI in limited duty behind Willson Contreras. Davis will now serve as the backup, but he has no fantasy relevance.
