Suffered the injury in his first Triple A game after posting a .925 OPS in Double A. On track to be ready for spring.
Pages suffered the injury in his first game after being called up to Triple-A. He was on track to possibly being the next young player to be called up to the majors after posting a .925 OPS in Double-A. The Dodgers’ youth movement has been on display this season and has been a real catalyst for the success the team has seen so far.
It’s unfortunate news for Pages and the Dodgers as he was having an awesome start to the season. Another few strong weeks in the minors and the major league club could have called him up. Pages has crushed left-handed pitching during his time in Double-A and would have been a real treat for Dodger fans to see.
Again, he will be on track to be ready for the spring but any injury can be cause for concern. Here’s to hoping Pages comes back stronger than ever and gets the chance to really show what he can do.
Pages is the number 6 prospect in the Dodgers system and number 63 in all of baseball, per MLB Pipeline.
