Hayden Wesneski X-rays negative
X-rays on Wesneski's left foot came back negative Saturday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Wesneski took a comebacker off his foot during Thursday's contest, but he managed to come away from the incident with no significant damage. He's slated to throw a bullpen session Sunday, per Brian McTaggart of MLB.com, and the right-hander should be fine to make his next scheduled outing.
