Pirates director of sports medicine Todd Tomczyk said Wednesday that Hayes (wrist) is not dealing with a new injury after his examination Friday, DK Pittsburgh Sports reports.

"Very positive news [from] the outcome of the exam and subsequent diagnostics," Tomczyk said. "We're not going to do the exact same things that we did before, but there will be some gradual progression into full baseball activities." The team is letting Hayes determine when he's ready to start playing catch or fielding grounders. While the 24-year-old won't likely return for at least several more days, fantasy managers have to be pleased that his absence isn't expected to linger too much longer.
