The Cleveland Guardians place Chase DeLauter on the seven-day injured list.
and potentially even an All-Star outfielder. The only thing holding Cleveland's No. 2 prospect back from that is injuries, and that's been the story of his professional career so far.
The Guardians Player Development System announced on Friday afternoon that they had placed DeLauter on the seven-day injured list with a right hamstring strain.
This isn't the first time this season that DeLauter has seen the IL. He's only played 36 games all year due to a broken foot and toe injury he suffered while at Double-A. The outfielder also broke his foot while he was at James Madison University.

DeLauter is an electric player when he's on the field, but his injury history is a real concern for how he'll fair in the big leagues and where exactly he'll play on defense. Hopefully, the 22-year-old can get healthy soon so he can play a few more minor league games before their season comes to an end.
