Bryant (ankle) is back in the starting lineup Sunday against the Braves.
Analysis:
Bryant was originally scheduled to miss the entire weekend series against the Braves due to a sprained ankle, but will return to action a day earlier than expected and get the starting nod in left field. He hasn't seen game action since Thursday, but will tape it up and hope for the best in the afternoon contest. Per Bruce Levine of 670 The Score, Bryant was never really too concerned about the ailment, an attitude that was confirmed through several tests.
