Analysis:

Even if Souza does return by Friday, owners should be cautious with him for the next week or so. His power could be the only thing that's getting him valuable plate appearances and any wrist injury can be a concern for bat speed. It might be best to take a wait and see approach, since Souza's floor is very low right now thanks to a brutally bad 38.0 percent strikeout rate.
