4 years agoWashington Nationals second baseman Starlin Castro was in the midst of an excellent offensive start to the season when he sustained a broken right wrist Friday against the Orioles, a continuation of a contest from last weekend. Castro cedes way to rookie Luis Garcia, who figures to see a large amount of playing time in his absence, as he ranks as Washington’s No. 2 prospect. Castro had slumped to the tune of 2-for-18 in his last four games entering Friday, yet he remained entrenched in the No. 3 slot of the Nationals’ order. Whether Castro is able to return in 2020 remains to be seen, but season-long owners are likely best suited planning to nab a long-term replacement.--Jesse Borek
