Lewis Brinson’s trying rookie season with the Marlins has taken another turn for the worse after further testing revealed the injured center fielder has a hip bone bruise.
The new diagnosis means Brinson will be out indefinitely.
“It’s just one of those things that’s going to take a little bit of time and they’ll have to be careful with how they bring him back,” said manager Don Mattingly.
Brinson was initially placed on the 10-day disabled list for right hip inflammation, an injury that was the result of a diving catch he made in Denver in June.
