A Yankees prospect who got shot while being robbed in the offseason has suffered another injury and might be finished for the season.

Shortstop Thairo Estrada has a back injury and Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre manager Bobby Mitchell said he thinks it's "going to be tough to come back from this year," The Times Leader's D.J. Eberle said on Twitter.

Thairo Estrada suffered another setback. This time it’s his back. Bobby Mitchell said that he thinks it’s going to be tough to come back from this year. #Yankees — DJ Eberle (@ByDJEberle) June 19, 2018

He didn’t rule anything out but just that it’s one setback after another and that he thought it’d be hard to recover in time to make an impact this year. — DJ Eberle (@ByDJEberle) June 20, 2018

Estrada has battled wrist and hamstring problems this year, too.

He missed all of big-league spring training with the Yankees while recovering from the gunshot wound.

Estrada was shot in his hometown of Bejuma, Venezuela, in late January. He said two teens tried to rob him for his cell phone and cash while at a restaurant with his wife. When he told them he didn't have either, one of them shot him.

The bullet is still in Estrada's hip. Doctors there tried to take it out but actually may have made the wound worse, Mitchell said. So they gave up and left it there.

MLB.com ranks Estrada the Yankees' No. 8 overall prospect.

Here's a portion of Estrada's MLB.com scouting report:

Though New York has played him at second and third base to enhance his versatility and to accommodate higher-profile prospects such as Gleyber Torres, there's no question that Estrada is a big league shortstop. He covers a lot of ground thanks to his smooth actions and keen instincts, and he has the plus arm to make all of the throws. He's also an asset at second and third base, and he's athletic enough to handle the outfield if asked.

Estrada controls the strike zone well and makes consistent line-drive contact. While he can hit for average, his flat right-handed swing doesn't create much power and his ability to put the bat on the ball actually limits his walk totals. He'll turn in some plus run times out of the batter's box, but doesn't play quite that fast and hasn't shown much aptitude for stealing bases.
