Walbert Urena (leg) hit by comebacker after five strong innings

Walbert Urena (leg) had to leave Friday's game after getting hit by a line drive in the leg in the top of the sixth inning.
Fantasy Impact:
Urena had pitched well up to that point, going five innings and allowing just a run on two hits while walking three and striking out four. However, the Mets' Bo Bichette led off the sixth with a 102.6 mph line drive off of Urena's right leg which forced him out of the game. An encouraging sign, however, was that he was able to throw warmup pitches to try to stay in the game before the Angels' medical staff decided to not take any chances. Urena is tentatively lined up to pitch against the White Sox on Wednesday, but more updates should be provided soon on Urena's status leading up to his next scheduled outing.
