Yeah

 

[VirginiaBrave]

It is a shame. Took him all year to recover.

2b is now a priority.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

How do you break a bone just swinging.

 

[msstate7]

Nacho needs to play fall ball at 2b

Ozzie should be healed by OD, but meh... The mental toll and power is rough

He broke it even earlier last season, and it took almost the whole season for him to hit again.

Does anyone know if this the same severity as his last fracture? How hard is it for the hamate bone to heal fully?

Can take up to a year for the power to return

Well at least Matty Whiff is back this week...

 

[VirginiaBrave]

That is hilarious after the week Young has had.

 

[Hulavol]

I just read up on this and the best answer so far is “it depends” - my guess is surgery to remove the broken bit probably this week - then he will definitely be ready to start building up strength and etc by December, full power and etc could take six months - or even a year - but could be at full strength by spring training. This is not severe like his wrist last season -
