Michael Soroka has turned the Diamondbacks $7.5 million flyer into a massive bargain.
Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Michael Soroka made an early exit on Friday, leaving the game after just one inning.
Soroka was seen waving for a trainer after taking the mound to start the second inning, but left after attempting a warm-up pitch. The team later shared an update that could bring bad news for a team already struck hard by injuries.
Diamondbacks Share Update on Michael Soroka
Shortly after Soroka was forced to exit the game, the Diamondbacks shared more details about the injury that cut short his night.
“Michael Soroka exited tonight’s game due to posterior left hip discomfort,” the team shared in a post on X.
As USA Today reporter Bob Nightengale noted, the Diamondbacks had just been hit with more bad injury news earlier in the day, and now face the prospect of losing Soroka for an extended time as well.
“The Arizona Diamondbacks, who learned they’ll be without starter Ryne Nelson until at least May with a flexor muscle strain and a ulnar collateral sprain, now watch starter Michael Soroka leave the game in the 2nd inning,” Nightengale shared in a post on X.
