Yunel Escobar seemed to tweak his wrist on a checked swing in the second inning of Wednesday's game. We don't know the severity of the injury yet, but let's briefly speculate on the options if the Nats need to replace him on the roster.
Washington Nationals third baseman Yunel Escobar left Wednesday afternoon's game with the New York Mets with an apparent wrist injury. It seemed like something popped in Escobar's wrist when he attempted to check his swing on an inside fastball from Mets starter Noah Syndergaard. Escobar lost the bat and fell to his back on the plate.
