Injury Worsens, Return Delayed for Archies Kaplan Tuesday, September 12th , 2051
Archies right fielder Aaron Kaplan has suffered a setback in his rehabilitation for a sprained thumb. He was expected to finish treatment soon and rejoin the team slightly ahead of schedule. Doctors reevaluated him after he felt severe pain in a recent workout. The preliminary examination revealed more damage and is worse than the first injury. Anonymous sources in St. Louis told BNN Aaron Kaplan would be absent from the roster quite a bit longer than originally diagnosed. He would now have to miss at least one week.
In the 2051 season Kaplan is hitting .263 with 12 home runs.
