Diamondbacks top prospect SS Jordan Lawlar will undergo season-ending shoulder surgery to repair a posterior labrum tear.

Fantasy Impact

Brutal. Lawlar was taken sixth overall by Arizona in this year's draft. He played in just two professional games before suffering the injury. It's a devastating blow to a farm system that has already been without Kristian Robinson and Corbin Carroll for most of the year. Lawlar is expected to be ready for the start of 2022, and his rehab will be important for dynasty league managers to track.
