THE BIG HURT: Hurt file, spring 2021 edition

We are hopefully past the worst of COVID-19, but it remains a threat, at least for the next few months. We won't project return time for players who test positive, since the recovery times range so widely—some will return in a couple of weeks with no issues and others may take months to fully recover (though the former is more likely).

Zack Britton (LHP, NYY) – L elbow, surgery to remove bone chips (3/15/21)
The surgery has a high degree of success, but the recovery time is on the long side.
2021 Impact: Some variability to recovery time
Est. Return: June/July

Framber Valdez – L hand, finger fracture (3/2/21)
So here's the problem: they will wait a bit to see if they can repair the fracture without surgery, so we probably won't know for...

Almost!
