Rays' Kevin Kiermaier: Undergoes successful surgery, out 8-10 weeks
Kiermaier (hand) underwent successful surgery Tuesday and is still expected to miss 8-10 weeks, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Analysis:
The procedure to repair the broken bones in his left hand went without a hitch Tuesday, so he remains on track to return within the initially reported timeline of 8-10 weeks. In his absence, the Rays will likely use a mixture of Desmond Jennings, Mikie Mahtook, and Brandon Guyer to fill the void in center field.
