Cole Ragans Leaves Early on Wednesday After Being Hit in the Hand
Kansas City Royals left-hander Cole Ragans (hand) was hit on the left hand by a comebacker against the Cleveland Guardians during his start on Wednesday and was removed early, according to Anne Rogers of MLB.com. Ragans initially stayed in the game after a lengthy visit from a trainer, but he was eventually pulled after facing five batters. His final line on the day was three earned runs allowed on two hits while walking one and striking out two in just two-thirds of an inning. The Royals will most likely send Ragans for X-rays to rule out any broken bones in his left hand. Fantasy managers will want to check back on the 28-year-old southpaw's status, but even if he avoids any structural damage in his throwing hand, Ragans might need to skip his next turn in KC's starting rotation. The former first-rounder was a first-time All-Star in 2024 but made only 13 starts in 2025 due to injuries. Ragans has plenty of bounce-back potential this year, but he'll need to stay healthy.
