Jake Diekman suffered a bruise on his left elbow and on his back during Tuesday's game against the Indians, Jeff Wilson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports. (Jeff Wilson on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Diekman could have problems throwing with the bruise on his arm. No reports have come out and the reliever should be considered day to day. Diekman could find himself in the running for the closer's job if Keone Kela continues to falter and fantasy owners should keep an eye on Diekman.
