Buxton (hand) is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Angels.
The official diagnosis for Buxton is a left hand contusion, the result of being hit by a Mat Latos pitch in the third inning of Thursday's game. X-rays on the hand were returned negative. Eddie Rosario will shift over to center field to replace Buxton on Friday, opening the door for Oswaldo Arcia in left. Injury aside, Buxton has had a rough go of it so far this season, recording four hits (two doubles) while striking out 13 times in 26 plate appearances.
