No. 24 Bryce Eldridge, 1B, Giants
Injury: Left wrist soreness
Expected return: TBD
The club announced that the first baseman was scratched from Spring Breakout due to left wrist soreness, an injury that has sidelined him for the last two weeks. Eldridge said he tweaked his wrist while taking a warmup swing and was shut down from all baseball activities when the discomfort persisted. An MRI exam came back clean, and Eldridge said he managed to resume hitting off a tee on March 15.

Eldridge said he hopes to return to game action by the end of next week, though he’s unsure if he’ll have enough time to ramp back up and be ready for the start of the Minor League season. (Last updated: March 15)

Expected return: TBD
Charlie Condon, the third overall pick in the 2024 Draft and Colorado's No. 2 prospect, sustained w a non-displaced fracture of his left wrist while diving to make a catch in the outfield on March 11.

No. 3 Walker Jenkins, OF, Twins
Injury: Left ankle sprain
Expected return: Mid-to-late March
The Twins' top prospect recently suffered a left ankle sprain and is sidelined for the time being. The club estimates that Jenkins is “one to two weeks behind” as a result of the injury, which he sustained while jumping for a ball. The injury is being characterized as a mild high ankle sprain.

The belief is that Jenkins’ injury is minor, but any setback at all is a disappointment for the 20-year-old phenom. Jenkins suffered a significant left hamstring injury in his Minor League season opener last year, which caused him to miss two months and left him feeling somewhat limited for the entire season.
