Nootbaar was placed on the 10-day injured list Friday with a lower-back contusion, Matt Pauley of 1120 AM reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nootbaar suffered the injury during Monday's game against the Royals when he crashed into the outfield wall after making a catch. The move is retroactive to May 30, so he'll be eligible for activation June 9, but it's unclear whether he'll be ready to go at that time.
