White Sox's Billy Carlson: Suffers fractured thumb
Single-A Kannapolis placed Carlson on its 7-day injured list Tuesday after the infielder was diagnosed with a non-displaced fracture of the tip of his left thumb, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
Carlson sustained the injury Saturday and is expected to require 4-to-6 weeks of recovery time. His thumb will be placed in a splint initially while he waits for the fracture to heal. The No. 10 overall pick in the 2025 First-Year Player Draft, the 19-year-old Carlson has slashed .257/.386/.340 with no home runs, eight stolen bases and a 27:45 BB:K over his first 39 pro games.
