Mitch Maier - OF - Boston Red Sox

An MRI confirmed that Mitch Maier is dealing with a "pretty severe sprain" of his left wrist.

Maier suffered the injury while making a diving catch in Friday's game. He'll remain in a splint for now and it's not clear when he'll be ready to resume baseball activities. His chances of making the Opening Day roster were already pretty slim, but this injury should seal his fate.
