Davis was diagnosed with a right knee contusion after leaving Tuesday's game against the Cardinals, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
That's just the initial diagnosis, however, and there should be more clarity on the full scope of the injury once Davis undergoes further testing. X-rays are planned and he might also be sent for an MRI. Davis banged his knee hard into the outfield turf Tuesday afternoon in Miami while trying to make a diving catch on a Tommy Edman line drive. He had to be carted off the field.

Davis was pulled from Tuesday's game against the Cardinals due to an apparent knee injury, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis had to be carted off the field after landing hard on the turf at loanDepot park while trying to make a diving catch on a Tommy Edman line drive in the top of the fifth inning. It looked like his right knee took the brunt of the fall. Dane Myers entered the game for the Marlins in center field.

Davis is expected to be the Marlins' primary center fielder while Jazz Chisholm (oblique) is sidelined, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis had emerged as the club's regular center fielder while Chisholm missed time with turf toe and now will get that role back as Chisholm goes down with another injury. The 31-year-old is manning center field and batting ninth Monday versus the Cardinals.

Davis will start in center field and bat eighth in Sunday's game against Atlanta, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Though he'll be included in the starting nine for the series finale, Davis was on the bench for each of the past three contests and looks to have moved into a fourth-outfielder role. With Jazz Chisholm having recently returned from the injured list, he'll be flanked in the outfield by Jesus Sanchez and Bryan De La Cruz more often than not.

Davis went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
The 31-year-old outfielder connected on his second homer of the year in the third inning off Jose Oviedo, giving Eury Perez and the Miami bullpen all the run support they would need in an eventual 2-0 victory. Davis is slashing .236/.290/.364 through 20 games in June while holding down the starting role in center field, but he should soon get bumped to the bench -- or even off the roster entirely -- when Jazz Chisholm (toe) makes his return.

Davis isn't in the Marlins' lineup Saturday against the Pirates, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis had his four-game hitting streak snapped Friday, as he finished 0-for-3 with two strikeouts. He'll get a day off Saturday while Jesus Sanchez moves to center field, Jorge Soler starts in right, Garrett Cooper serves as the DH and Yuli Gurriel starts at first base while batting sixth.

Davis isn't in the Marlins' lineup Tuesday against the Mariners, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Davis is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis had started in center field in each of the previous four games, going 3-for-14 with three doubles, five RBI and four runs over that span. Garrett Hampson will fill in for Davis in center in the series finale.

Davis will start in center field and bat ninth in Monday's game against the Royals, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis will get his third straight start in center field after finishing the Marlins' weekend series with Oakland with a pair of doubles and two RBI. Though he appears to have supplanted Garrett Hampson as the Marlins' preferred option in center, both Davis and Hampson will likely see their opportunities dwindle when Jazz Chisholm (toe) likely returns from the injured list at some point this month.
