Kiermaier was diagnosed with a bruised hand after X-rays found no further damage resulting from a hit-by-pitch Friday night, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kiermaier's status for Saturday afternoon's game will depend on swelling and how the injury responds overnight, but this one shouldn't require a trip to the disabled list. Considering Kiermaier's recent struggles (just four hits in his last 45 at-bats entering Friday's game), it wouldn't be surprising if he got a day off Saturday to rest the hand.
