Profar was diagnosed with a bone bruise in his left wrist Sunday, and he's not expected to be sidelined for Opening Day, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

The news comes as a relief for Atlanta, which will already be without star Ronald Acuna (knee) for the start of the campaign. Profar signed a three-year, $42 million contract in January and is poised to operate as Atlanta's primary left fielder after posting an .839 OPS with 24 homers in 158 regular-season games for San Diego last year.
