There isn’t a whole lot of margin for error when it comes to the Washington Nationals this season, so it will be imperative for the roster to stay as healthy as possible throughout the campaign.
Thankfully, the Nationals have avoided the injury bug that has affected multiple teams across Major League Baseball already this spring, as star player after star player has gone down with issues that will keep them out for multiple weeks.
One of those names is Corbin Carroll, the superstar outfielder of the Arizona Diamondbacks. It was reported that he broke the hamate bone in his right hand during batting practice, and now his status for Opening Day is in question.
Unfortunately for Carroll, he will also miss the World Baseball Classic that is set to get underway on March 5 and run through March 17. So because of that, Team USA is looking for his replacement.
