Phillies' Dominic Brown fractures hand; surgery likely--could be out 3-6 weeks
Dr. Roto says: A big loss for owners of Brown. The kid was struggling this spring, trying to tweak his swing, but the Phillies were hopeful of him beginning the year with ball club. Now, attention needs to be turned to Phillies 4th OF Ben Francisco.
Francisco is a 5 tool player who could hit 20/20 if given the opportunity to get 500 AB. If he starts the season hot, there is a good chance that may happen. As for Brown, he needs to heal quickly and get his timing back in the minors. If he plays well in Triple A, expect to see him called up to the majors in June.
