Kiermaier is out of the lineup Friday, the Tampa Bay Times' Marc Topkin reports. Mikie Mahtook is getting the start in center field with John Danks on the hill for the White Sox. Kiermaier has not hit well enough this season to get the benefit of the doubt when southpaws are on the mound (for the most part), but he still offers some value in deeper leagues.

Kiermaier is out of the lineup Sunday against the Mariners, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports. With the Rays facing their fifth left-handed starter in six games, Kiermaier's at-bats have been somewhat scarce of late. He'll give way to Mikie Mahtook in center field for the series finale.

Kiermaier went 2-for-3 with a triple, a walk, two steals and a run scored in a 2-1 loss to the Mariners on Saturday. Kiermaier was the only Ray who could figure out Mariners ace Felix Hernandez, as the rest of the team recorded only a single hit. The youngster has secured a spot as the leadoff hitter against right-handers, so he's a sneaky play in daily leagues when the Rays draw a righty. Unfortunately, they draw three lefties in six games next week, so Kiermaier will likely see limited at-bats.

Kiermaier is out of the lineup for Thursday's game in Seattle, Roger Mooney of The Tampa Tribune reports. Kiemaier will take a seat once again, with the Rays facing a left-handed starter for a third straight game. Unfortunately for Kiermaier's owners, the Rays are also scheduled to face southpaws in seven of the next 10 games after Thursday. This is one of the the most lefty-heavy stretches of a schedule any team will face all season.

Kiermaier is out of the lineup Tuesday, the Tampa Bay Times' Marc Topkin reports. The Rays will deploy a right-heavy lineup with lefty C.J. Wilson on the mound for the Angels on Tuesday. Kiermaier may get another day off Wednesday with lefty Hector Santiago taking the ball for the Halos. Mikie Mahtook will get the start in center field and hit eighth Tuesday.

Kiermaier is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Orioles, Roger Mooney of The Tampa Tribune reports. It's unclear at the moment if Kiermaier is getting some standard rest or is still feeling the ankle injury, but him coming back Sunday or pinch hitting Saturday would go a long way in alleviating any nagging injury concerns. Brandon Guyer will pick up Kiermaier's role, playing center field and batting leadoff.

Kiermaier (ankle) is in the lineup hitting leadoff Friday against the Orioles. He underwent precautionary X-rays Wednesday but will not have to miss any time due to the ankle issue. Consider him healthy moving forward.

Kiermaier had x-rays on his bruised right ankle and the results were negative, Roger Mooney of the Tamba Tribune reports. Kiermaier said "it's all good" and that he will be good to go so it appears that there will be no lingering effects from the ankle injury. Kiermaier has gone hitless in his last three outings, so he will look to get back on track when the Rays take the field next on Friday against the Orioles.

Kiermaier is out of the lineup Friday. Brandon Guyer gets the start in center field as the Rays deploy a righty-heavy lineup against southpaw Scott Kazmir. Kiermaier is only getting on base at a .285 clip, but he is slugging .419 and his defense will keep him in the lineup most days.

Kiermaier hit a solo home run and RBI groundout in Friday's loss to the Rangers. Kiermaier has struggled in May after an excellent April, hitting .167/.231/.333 across 24 plate appearances. His average is now down to .267 from a high of .306, but his power is at least making up for it with three home runs and 12 total extra-base hits this season.
