Stubbs (toe) is expected to miss 1-3 weeks, Stefan Stevenson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stubbs had left Sunday's game with a toe injury and will now focus on rehabbing. The 31-year-old is hitting .245/.328/.358 with two home runs and five RBI through 30 games this season.

Stubbs left Sunday's game against the Astros with a sprained left toe, TR Sullivan of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The injury doesn't appear to be too severe but more information should be coming once the game concludes.

Stubbs signed a major league contract with the Rangers on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The writing appears to be on the wall for Delino DeShields, who is slashing .226/.301/.290 in 26 games. Stubbs has not been an above replacement-level player since 2014 with the Rockies, but the Rangers apparently think he can be a net positive for them in the short term. The team's center fielder of the future, Lewis Brinson, is at Double-A, and the big league outfielders, both healthy and injured, are not center fielders by trade. Stubbs could be a useful source of steals in really deep leagues if he starts to get regular playing time, but he is likely to be a negative in batting average, and should be expected to hit near the bottom of the order.

Stubbs was designated for assignment Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Stubbs shared some time in center field with Mallex Smith while Ender Inciarte (hamstring) has been injured, but his .237 batting average hasn't exactly impressed the Braves brass very much, leading them to send him off the 40-man roster. He has a decent amount of MLB experience under his belt, so he could get swiped up by another team in need of outfield depth, although he'll likely end up in Triple-A with whatever team has him.

Stubbs is out of the lineup Sunday against the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Stubbs had started three of the last four games in center field, but manager Fredi Gonzalez will turn to the young Mallex Smith on Sunday afternoon. Stubbs does own a .641 OPS in 41 plate appearances this season, but Smith's presence in the lineup is likely just another way to get another left-handed bat in the order against opposing starter John Lackey.

Stubbs is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Mallex Smith will take over in center for the Braves on Thursday for their series finale at Fenway Park. Stubbs is slotted to start against lefties until Ender Inciarte (hamstring) comes off the disabled list, but with righty Clay Buchholz on the bump for the Red Sox on Thursday, he'll get the night off. Look for Stubbs to take back over in center field Friday when the Braves face lefty Jon Lester and the Cubs.

Stubbs will start in center field against left-handed pitchers until Ender Inciarte returns from injury, David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal Constitution reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mallex Smith will receive the starts against right-handed hitters. This platoon makes sense as Stubbs is hitting .308 against southpaws this season and just .154 against right-handed pitching.

Stubbs is not in the starting lineup Monday against the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Rookie Mallex Smith is starting in center field and leading off for Atlanta in his big league debut Monday. With Smith on the roster in place of Ender Inciarte (15-day DL, hamstring), Stubbs may fall into the small side of a platoon in the near future.

Stubbs got another start in center field Sunday, going 1-for-4 with a walk and a three-run homer off Adam Wainwright, his first home run of the season.

EDGE Analysis

Of course he also struck out in his other three plate appearances, but that's about the best you can expect from Stubbs. With Endr Inciarte (hamstring) on DL, Stubbs could be in line for plenty of playing time in the short term, but even if he supplies the occasional homer or steal he's likely to be a drain on your batting average after striking out seven times in his first 11 at-bats of 2016.

Stubbs is in the lineup Saturday against the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Stubbs will make his first start of the season, replacing Ender Inciarte in center field Saturday. The 31-year-old will bat seventh against Cardinals' starter Carlos Martinez.
