"Brito's surgery on a high-grade ligament sprain is expected to sideline him for 8 to 12 weeks, impacting his playing time in a crucial year."
"Having only four seasons as he approaches the end of his option years complicates Brito's future with the Guardians, especially with potential promotions looming."
Guardians infielder Brito underwent surgery on his right thumb for a high-grade sprain and is projected to miss 8 to 12 weeks. He sustained the injury last Thursday during a slide at third base. As Brito is on an optional assignment, he may be placed on the minor league injured list initially, with implications for his 40-man roster status. Being in his final option year complicates his future with the team, especially with prospects looming. The injury timing is particularly tough as 2025 seemed to open up more opportunities for him.
