Jesús Sánchez (wrist) is out of the lineup for Tuesday’s series opener against the Braves.

Sánchez likely would’ve been in the lineup against righty Bryce Elder on Tuesday night had he not suffered a right wrist contusion when he was struck by a ball that was thrown from the stands during Sunday’s game against the Orioles. It was a bizarre incident, and by all accounts a misunderstanding by a fan, but Sánchez seems to have avoided serious injury. He’s day-to-day for now. It’ll be hard-hitting rookie Yohendrick Piñango taking over in right field in his absence.
