Bryant (ankle) is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Braves, but the Cubs are not concerned about his injury, Paul Sullivan of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Analysis:

Bryant will be held out of at least one game after exiting Thursday's contest with the ankle injury, but given the Cubs' optimism, it does not seem he will be sidelined for long. Javier Baez will man the hot corner Friday in Bryant's place.
