Gabriel Moreno Out for Season With Right Hand Contusion

Gabriel Moreno, the Arizona Diamondbacks' catcher, is dealing with a right hand contusion and has been placed on the 60-day injured list. This is a significant development as he had a solid season, hitting .270 with 47 hits in 174 at-bats. Moreno also contributed 20 RBIs and five home runs over 53 games. His on-base percentage stood at .324, and his slugging percentage was .414.

Recent injuries to Moreno have sidelined him since early July, affecting the Diamondbacks' lineup. In his last 10 games before the injury, Moreno posted a .297 average with 11 hits in 37 at-bats. He performed better at home with a .300 average, as opposed to his .238 average on the road. His absence could impact the team's performance, especially in home games where he has been more effective.
