Friday got off to a dubious start in the baseball world. MLB announced that Tim Anderson, the player who was thrown at by Brad Keller and ejected from the Royals/White Sox game, was also to be suspended for one game for using a racial slur during the dust-up. Shortly after that announcement, Mariners fans got some very sour news on one of the system’s best prospects.
Mariners OF prospect Julio Rodriguez has a hairline fracture of his left hand. Was HBP on April 12 and hasn't played since.
