Jayson Werth out until August
by Clinton H. | Thu, May 28th 4:23pm EDT
After a CT scan was performed, it is now confirmed that Jayson Werth has 2 small fractures in his left wrist after being hit by a pitch. Assuming he has no setbacks with rehab, he could return to play as early a August. (MLB.com)
Fantasy Impact:
Werth's season has been a large disappointment up to this point. He started the season on the DL and never really got into a groove. Now he will be out for months and there is no telling whether the August return date will hold. Owners who still have him on a roster can safely drop him for a replacement. There is no clear cut replacement for the Nationals as they will roll out a platoon of players in left field.
