Orioles SS Richie Martin To Miss Start Of 2020 Season Due To Fractured Wrist
BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- With the start of the abbreviated 2020 Major League Baseball season nearing, the Baltimore Orioles continued their summer workouts at Camden Yards Sunday despite getting some bad news about one of their players.
Shortstop Richie Martin will be out for an extended period of time after fracturing his right wrist.
Manager Brandon Hyde said the 25-year-old is disappointed he will not be able to start the season with the team.
"My heart goes out to him," Hyde said. "He worked so hard, he had a great offseason from a work standpoint, he's making huge strides. We were just talking about how much he's improved defensively yesterday morning and I like the swing adjustments he's been making."
