Fantasy Impact:

The good news is that Paulino has no structural damage to his elbow. It is unclear how long he will be sidelined for. The 23-year-old was ranked the 83rd best prospect in baseball by Baseball Prospectus and was expected to help the major league club at some point during the year as a starter or reliever. Paulino still has long-term upside, but his likelihood to contribute in 2017 doesn't look so great.
