Royals manager Ned Yost said Soler sustained a "dislocated rib" on his right side after charging in for a fly ball in Monday's game against the Rays and then stopping suddenly and leaping to make the catch.

The word "dislocated" created some concern from Royals fans, who thought the injury must be more serious, on Twitter.
