HOUSTON -- Though none of it appears to be particularly serious, Indians outfielder Jose Ramirez has a host of nicks and bruises on his hands.
Ramirez wasn't in the starting lineup for Wednesday's series finale against the Astros at Minute Maid Park thanks to a sore right wrist and some minor cuts on his left fingers.
Ramirez originally had tape around his right hand and wrist early Wednesday morning, and added tape wraps around the left fingers later in the morning. X-rays on his right wrist came back negative after he was hit by a pitch there in the seventh inning of Tuesday's 4-0 win.
