Adam Eaton out 6-8 weeks with elbow sprain
Adam Eaton - OF - Arizona Diamondbacks
March 22, 2013 - 5:15 PM ET

Adam Eaton will miss 6-8 weeks with a UCL sprain in his left elbow.

Tough break for one of Rotoworld's favorite sleepers. It's not clear when the injury took place, but Eaton did make an early exit from Monday's game. As of now, he's expected back in mid-to-late May, but ulnar collateral ligament injuries can be tricky. With Cody Ross (calf) questionable for the start of the season, the Diamondbacks could have an outfield of Jason Kubel, Gerardo Parra and A.J. Pollock on Opening Day. Parra is officially worth owning in deeper mixed fantasy leagues.
