Braves' Erick Aybar: Placed on 15-day DL Saturday

Aybar (foot) was placed on the 15-day DL on Saturday.

Analysis:

Aybar was hit by a pitch in Friday's series opener with Marlins, and sustained a right foot contusion. Shortly after being declared out of the lineup Saturday the Braves announced they placed him on the disabled list. Aybar had X-rays taken following Friday's game, which fortunately came back negative. Chase d-Arnaud is drawing the start at shortstop for the Braves Saturday, but both he and Daniel Castro should see some time there while Aybar is out.
