Kirk Nieuwenhuis has been diagnosed with a bone bruise in his left knee and is on anti-inflammatories.
It's pretty great news, all things considered. Nieuwenhuis was limping badly and in considerable pain Sunday after he banged his left knee while sliding into the second base bag during a Grapefruit League game. But he should be back in action in a little more than a week.
