Fantasy Baseball: What's the Impact of Ian Desmond's Injury?

It has not been a good week for the Colorado Rockies.

First, outfielder David Dahl suffered a rib injury that could force him to miss Opening Day. He's been shut down for two weeks and will be re-evaluated then, with no specific timetable for his return set. Starting pitcher Chad Bettis found out his testicular cancer has spread and will need to step away from the team to undergo chemotherapy (thankfully, Bettis said doctors caught it early and he's expected to be fine).

And now, this happened to their prize free-agent acquisition of the offseason, Ian Desmond.
