Marlins 3B Connor Norby (wrist surgery) out 6-8 weeks

Miami Marlins third baseman Connor Norby underwent surgery on his broken left wrist during the All-Star break and will be sidelined six to eight weeks.
Norby had his hamate bone repaired during the procedure performed in Phoenix.
Norby, 25, felt soreness in the wrist during Friday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. He was placed on the injured list Sunday due to wrist inflammation.
"I think he was just more disappointed that he was going to have to miss some time," Marlins manager Clayton McCullough said before Friday's home game against the Kansas City Royals. "He felt like, right now, that he was trending (in the right direction), and he had some confidence in what he was doing. So for him to miss out on however much time it is for him, it's disappointing, and for us as well."
Norby is batting .241 with six homers and 26 RBIs in 72 games. He also missed time early in the season due to a left oblique strain.
Norby was acquired from the Baltimore Orioles at last season's trade deadline in a deal that also brought All-Star outfielder Kyle Stowers to Miami. The Marlins gave up left-hander Trevor Rogers in the deal.
Graham Pauley started at third base for Miami on Friday.
