KRIS BRYANT NEWS

Shifts to injured list Bryant was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a sprained left ring finger and a sore left wrist, retroactive to Aug. 19, Patrick Mooney of The Athletic reports.

Impact Manager David Ross said earlier in the day there were no plans to place the 28-year-old on the injured list, but apparently things changed when he was later evaluated. Bryant has been sidelined for the past five games since sustaining the injuries on a dive attempt last week. He received an injection in the wrist Tuesday and still needs more time to get healthy. Bryant will be eligible to be activated for next Saturday's doubleheader in Cincinnati, though it's unclear if he's expected to be ready by that point.

There is still no clear timetable for his return, but the fact that he's not likely for a trip to the injured list is encouraging for his outlook.
