Rockies' Ian Desmond: Surgery set for Wednesday

Desmond will undergo surgery Wednesday to repair the second metacarpal in his left hand, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Analysis:

Desmond fractured his left hand when he was hit by a pitch during Sunday's spring training game. It's unclear how long he will be sidelined with the injury, but in the meantime, Gerardo Parra and Mark Reynolds should see more reps at first base. More should be known about his timetable after he undergoes the procedure, so it will be something to monitor in the coming days.
