Detroit Tigers shortstop Jose Iglesias will miss at least the next two weeks after a CT scan Friday revealed a nondisplaced chip fracture in his right middle finger at the proximal interphalangeal joint.

Iglesias, 25, suffered the injury in Thursday night's loss to the Kansas City Royals when he was hit by a pitch while attempting to bunt in the top of the third inning. Initial X-rays were negative.

"He's an All-Star shortstop. You'd rather have him in there," Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said. "At best, it was probably going to be a week, anyway, but after the CT scan, it's probably going to be at least two."

Iglesias will be re-evaluated in two weeks.

On Friday night, 23-year-old prospect Dixon Machado played shortstop in Iglesias' absence, making a stellar defensive play to snag a hard line drive in the fifth inning and following up with a leadoff double in the sixth inning of the Tigers' 8-1 loss to the Cleveland Indians.
