#DBacks Jordan Lawler is out 6-8 weeks with a broken wrist
They called up Adrian Del Castillo. He is not in the lineup tonight, but we could see him be the strong-side of a platoon at DH
Tim Tawa got the start in the outfield. For the time being he could be who gains the playing time in the outfield until Lourdes Gurriel returns
Jose Fernandez came to mind but with never having played the outfield, that limits his playing time potential. He has also only started one of the three games against RHP they have had since coming up.
This is a lineup to monitor over the next few games to see the true fallout but this is my initial read is on things.
What a tough blow for Lawlar, as the rookie was finally receiving his first extended opportunity at the show and smacked his first career home run Thursday night. A pitch later struck Lawlar on his right wrist, and a follow-up CT scan on Friday revealed the fracture. Adrian Del Castillo has been called up by the Diamondbacks to take Lawlar's place on the roster.
