Jordan Lawlar Still Holding Stash Upside Amid Looming Return?
Arizona Diamondbacks infield/outfield prospect Jordan Lawlar (wrist) has been on the 60-day injured list for the majority of the regular season but has recently begun to make strides in his return. Earlier this week, the former top prospect took dry swings for the first time. Additionally, the team's manager, Torey Lovullo, noted that his wrist fracture continues to heal quite well. While Lawlar is still several weeks away from returning to game action, it appears he is progressing well through the early stages of his recovery. Before the injury, Lawlar appeared to have emerged as a primary option in the outfield, appearing in six games and posting a .333 AVG with one double and one home run. During spring training, he flashed high-end upside, holding a .333/.448/.604 line over a 17-game stint. Given that his potential return date may not be for another month, managers should only consider stashing him in deeper 15+ team leagues for the time being.
