EDGE Analysis

Kiermaier tallied an inside-the-park home run in the first inning when he hit a line drive that got past a diving Jesus Sanchez. Though unconventional, the performance continued Kiermaier's recent power surge, as he has now collected four home runs with seven RBI and 10 runs scored in his last 10 games. Kiermaier has maintained a .255/.293/.464 line across 116 plate appearances on the campaign.

Kiermaier went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run in a 6-1 win against Baltimore on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Kiermaier's eighth-inning, 406-foot solo shot gave Tampa Bay a six-run lead and was his second long ball in the past three games. After hitting a paltry .174 across his first 31 games of the campaign, the veteran has recorded three-straight three-hit performances to lift his batting average to .240. Kiermaier batted out of the leadoff spot for the first time this season Saturday, and he could get more opportunities there if he continues to swing a hot stick.

Kiermaier is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

With southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez on the bump for Detroit, the lefty-hitting Kiermaier will check out of the starting nine. The Rays will roll out an outfield of Randy Arozarena, Brett Phillips and Vidal Brujan from left to right.

Kiermaier (knee) went 1-for-1 with a stolen base Sunday against the Blue Jays.

EDGE Analysis

Kiermaier was held out of the lineup Sunday after fouling a ball off his knee in the previous game. However, he entered the matchup in the eighth inning as a defensive replacement and subsequently stole his third base of the campaign. Apparently healthy, Kiermaier is likely to get regular playing time so long as Manuel Margot (hamstring) remains on the injured list.

Kiermaier, who fouled a ball off his right knee Saturday, said he is feeling better and is available off the bench Sunday, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

He should be considered day-to-day until he officially re-enters the lineup. With Manuel Margot on the injured list with a hamstring strain, the Rays will likely play Kiermaier pretty regularly once he's cleared to return.

Kiermaier is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 32-year-old finds himself on the bench for the second straight contest with Brett Phillips receiving another start in center field. Kiermaier has a .171/.227/.329 slash line with three home runs, two stolen bases and a 30.7 percent strikeout rate through 29 games.

Kiermaier isn't starting Saturday's game against the Blue Jays, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kiermaier was initially listed among the starters for Saturday's matchup, but the team issued a revised lineup with Brett Phillips starting in center field and batting ninth. Kiermaier isn't believed to be dealing with an injury, so he should be available off the bench.
