Descalso, 29, was hit by a pitch from the Indians' Tom Gorzelanny during Friday's Cactus League game. Original X-rays were negative for a break, but the continued swelling alerted the Rockies' staff and Descalso that the injury needed a more detailed look.
In 2015, the first under a two-year, $3.6 million contract, Descalso batted .205 with three doubles, two triples, five home runs and 22 RBIs in 101 games that included 39 starts, mostly at shortstop. The Rockies signed him after he had played in five seasons with the Cardinals.
"People get caught up in the numbers," Weiss said.
