What It Means:

After missing the weekend series with the Colorado Rockies, Nunez tried to come back on Monday but appears to have re-injured his hamstring as he will now miss his third straight game on Thursday. He is still considered day-to-day but may be a DL candidate if he can't play on Friday. Kelby Tomlinson will continue to play at third.

Nunez had 17 stolen bases and a .299 batting average this year and was projected, by our algorithms, for 17 more steals, along with 41 runs scored, the rest of the season, before the injury.
