That could indicate that a few days or a week off is all that the third baseman needs.Bob Melvin confirms no break in Manny Machado: injury updatePadres manager Bob Melvin said via ESPN:"There's nothing broken in there. He got hit on the top of the hand. Might have gotten a nerve or something like that. For him to come out of the game, it can't feel too terribly good. He's got quite the pain tolerance. We've got a lot of treatment. We'll see how he is [Tuesday]."Manny Machado didn't break anythingThere's no official timetable just yet, but the negative X-Ray certainly bodes well for his injury update. If it's a bruise or contusion, then Manny Machado shouldn't miss but a few games. Since the X-Ray ruled out a broken bone, then a months-long Injured List stint is probably not necessary.He is more than likely to be out of the lineup today but is considered day-to-day at this point and unlikely to miss an extended period of time.
