Clemson outfielder Will Taylor suffered a fractured scaphoid bone in his left wrist while making a diving catch and is expected to miss the remainder of the season following surgery scheduled with Dr. Michelle Carlson on Tuesday. The recovery timeframe is estimated at 6 weeks before he can resume baseball activities. In a related update, TJ Friedl is approximately 10 days to two weeks away from starting a rehab assignment as he recovers from a right wrist fracture, according to Bell. Additionally, Tigers pitcher Sawyer Gipson-Long will undergo UCL reconstruction and receive an internal brace, a procedure previously undergone by notable pitchers like Casey Mize, Justin Verlander, and Tyler Glasnow.
Erik Bakich says outfielder Will Taylor fractured his wrist. Could be back in late May. "That's a big loss. Obviously, he's a dynamic player ... but it's a different situation than Andrew Ciufo because he should be back to help us in conference tournament, regionals."

Tigers RHP Sawyer Gipson-Long is going to get UCL reconstruction and the internal brace. It's the same surgery that Casey Mize, Justin Verlander, Tyler Glasnow have had in recent years.
Slightly correcting my earlier post… Bell said TJ Friedl (right wrist fracture) could be 10 days to two weeks from beginning a rehab assignment if all stays on track. He is building up strength and ramping up activity again after a brief slowdown.
