masn-baseballs-orioles.jpgAnybody know what happened to the hour that I lost this morning? I’m searching for it like a contact lense.

I had the joyous task of checking on Michael Aubrey’s groin a few minutes ago.

Still think I have the best job in the world?

Aubrey said the area “tightened up” as he left the batter’s box after lining a single in his first at-bat in yesterday’s game in Tampa. He’s day-to-day with the injury.

“It didn’t feel right,” he said.

It doesn’t feel much better this…Anybody know what happened to the hour that I lost this morning? I’m searching for it like a contact lense.

Aubrey said the area “tightened up” as he left the batter’s box after lining a single in his first at-bat in yesterday’s game in Tampa. He’s day-to-day with the injury.

“It didn’t feel right,” he said.

It doesn’t feel much better this morning.

“It’s there. I’ll just have to keep an eye on it,” he said.

“I’m not sure what the course of action’s going to be as far as the next step.”

Whatever the step is, I’d be sure to tread lightly.

Aubrey already was catching up to the other hitters after undergoing a procedure that required stitches in his back. Now he’s sidelined again.

“It’s extremely frustrating,” he said, “but it’s something to work through and make yourself better because of it.”
