Goldschmidt (hand) underwent a CT scan Tuesday, which confirmed that surgery will not be necessary, Jack Magruder of FOXSportsArizona.com reports.
The 26-year-old was ruled out for the year after suffering a fractured left hand back on Aug. 1, but the results of Tuesday's CT scan suggest he may be able to resume strengthening work in just 2-to-3 more weeks. The 26-year-old hit .300/.396/.542 with 19 homers and 69 RBI in 109 games this season, further cementing himself as one of the elite fantasy options in baseball.
