"The Guardians announced this afternoon that last year's first overall pick Travis Bazzana has been diagnosed with a right internal oblique strain."
"Top college draftees fairly regularly reach the majors by the end of their first full professional season."
"Bazzana is striking out at a somewhat worrying 26.2% clip, but he'd begun to find his stride at the plate."
"Daniel Schneemann has stepped up as Stephen Vogt's primary second baseman, already hitting six homers with a .265/.339/.500 slash."
Travis Bazzana, the Guardians' first overall pick from last year, has a right internal oblique strain that will keep him out for 8-10 weeks. This injury diminishes his opportunities to debut in the majors this season, as many draftees do within the first year. Bazzana has been playing at Double-A Akron, holding an impressive .252/.362/.433 line with four home runs, though he struggles with strikeouts at 26.2%. Meanwhile, Daniel Schneemann has emerged as the starting second baseman, having a solid season in Bazzana's absence.
