Kris Bryant's disastrous seven-year contract with the Colorado Rockies continues to be, well, a disaster. The Rockies placed Bryant on the 10-day injured list with lumbar degenerative disc disease, the team announced Monday. They did not provide a timetable for his return or details about a treatment plan.

Bryant is headed to the 10-day injured list, the Rockies announced on Wednesday, due to lumbar degenerative disc disease. It’s the latest in a series of injuries that have plagued Bryant since he signed with the Rockies on a seven-year, $182 million contract ahead of the 2022 season.

Kris Bryant's diagnosis is not just a player injury story; it's a franchise-altering moment that could shape the Rockies' operation for years.
