Kris Bryant Done for Season
Injured Colorado Rockies designated hitter Kris Bryant (back) will not return this season, according to Patrick Saunders of the Denver Post. Bryant appeared in 11 games this year, none since April 12, and hit a ghastly .154/.195/.205 in 41 plate appearances before going on the injured list with lumbar degenerative disk disease in his back. Bryant has tried rehabbing the injury, but to no avail, and he has sought experimental treatments to avoid undergoing fusion surgery. If Bryant opts for the surgery, it could prevent him from playing again. Once among the game's premier players and a former MVP, Bryant's career has gone off the rails since he signed a seven-year, $182 million contract with the Rockies in 2022. Injuries have limited the 33-year-old to just 170 games since then, and he has only managed a .244/.324/.370 line with 17 home runs and 61 RBI in 712 plate appearances.
