Brito will be sidelined 8-to-12 weeks after having surgery Friday to repair a high-grade ligament sprain in his right thumb, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Brito suffered the injury last week while sliding into a base in an April 17 game with Triple-A Columbus. The affiliate officially placed him on its 7-day injured list Thursday. The 23-year-old infielder had been off to a nice start this season with Columbus, slashing .291/.406/.491 with two home runs, four steals and a 10:11 K:BB.
