Plawecki could see more work than expected early in the season after Christian Vazquez suffered an eye injury Thursday.

Per Ian Browne of MLB.com, Vazquez was struck in the face by a thrown ball, causing his sunglasses to shatter, and he suffered a laceration under his left eye. The injury is not considered serious, but if Vazquez is unavailable come Opening Day, Plawecki is healthy and set to fill in. He's 4-for-19 with one RBI, one run and three strikeouts over nine spring contests.
