James Paxton left Tuesday's start against the Oakland Athletics after being struck in his pitching arm by a line drive in the first inning. Paxton did not wait for the trainer and exited the game immediately. (Mike Petriello on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

While the severity of the injury is not yet known, the expedited nature of Paxton's exit should be cause for concern. More information should be known after Tuesday's game or Wednesday morning after he receives X-Rays, but this is definitely worrisome for Paxton, the Mariners, and fantasy owners.
