Tampa Bay's Shrum to Miss Season
Monday, July 24th , 2023
A blow for Matt Shrum today -- team doctors confirmed he will miss 4-5 months with a broken bone in the elbow. Shrum suffered the injury being hit by a pitch. Although officials from the Tampa Bay Captains are confident he'll make a full recovery, doubts will persist about Shrum's ability to return fully fit with an injury of this nature.

Shrum is batting .284 this season in 31 games with 3 home runs, 16 RBIs and 12 runs scored. He has 27 hits in 95 at-bats.
