Austin Hedges Will Have Scans After Early Exit
Cleveland Guardians catcher Austin Hedges (hand) was forced to leave Monday night's game after taking a fastball off the back of his right hand. The 33-year-old veteran was visibly upset and will undergo further testing on Tuesday to determine the extent of the injury. Hedges was set to split time behind the plate with Bo Naylor for the Guardians, but if he misses time, David Fry could get more time at catcher, or the team could bring back Jonathan Rodriguez or Petey Halpin. While Hedges is not typically a strong enough offensive contributor for fantasy baseball teams, Naylor and Fry's playing time would be impacted by his absence, so keep an eye out for an update on Hedges' status for Opening Day.
