The Diamondbacks have struggled enough this season with slugger Paul Goldschmidt in their lineup. They must now get by without him - he has been placed on the 15-day disabled list with a fractured left hand.

That is what an MRI taken Friday night revealed. Goldschmidt took a fastball from Ernesto Frieri off the hand in the ninth inning. He reported pain after the game, but expressed hopefulness that the problem was not serious.

Goldschmidt had slumped of late with three hits in his last 24 at-bats, but he still boasts an impressive stat line of .300/.396/.542 with 19 home runs, 69 RBI and 75 runs scored.
