Hayes was removed from Thursday's game against the Cardinals in the bottom of the first inning due to an apparent left wrist injury, Jake Crouse of MLB.com reports.

Hayes struck out in the top of the first inning Thursday but was removed from the game with no outs in the bottom half of the frame. While the exact nature and severity of the issue aren't yet clear, trainers appeared to be looking at his left wrist/forearm as he left the field. That same wrist cost Hayes extended time in 2021 and sapped some of his power upon his return, so his fantasy managers have reason to be concerned. If the 25-year-old is forced to miss any additional time, Diego Castillo and Josh VanMeter are the likely options to fill in at third base.
