Jeter X-ray negative

Derek Jeter suffered a right foot contusion when Toronto starter Ricky Romero hit him in Jeter's leadoff at bat. The injury didn't stop Jeter from getting around the bases as he scored the game's first run, but he did have to leave the game in the second after grounding out.

An X-ray showed no damage, but there is no word on Jeter's prognosis.

Fantasy Impact: The Yankees play Thursday night in Seattle. It may be wise to leave Jeter out of the lineup if possible.

Dye injured

Jermaine Dye took a fastball off his left hand during an at bat late in the White Sox game at Texas. Dye looked to be in a lot of pain while he was examined. He then walked off ahead of the medical staff and did not return.

One of the White Sox announers suggested that because his hand was not on the bat when the ball struck Dye might be OK. I've never heard that proposed before, but it might have some merit.
