NORTH PORT, Fla. — Atlanta Braves outfielder Jurickson Profar left their spring training game on Saturday with a jammed left wrist.
Profar got hurt in the fourth inning against Pittsburgh. It looked as if he landed awkwardly on his arm while trying to make a diving catch on Jack Suwinski‘s sinking liner to left field.
Initial X-rays on Profar were negative, and the Braves said he would undergo further testing.
The 32-year-old Profar agreed to a $42 million, three-year contract with Atlanta in January. The switch-hitter is coming off a career year, batting .280 with 24 homers and 85 RBIs for the San Diego Padres last season.
