Yeah this is getting silly. He's starting to feel like the Hunter Harvey of position players. That said, it could totally be a cramp who knows. 

I think the Hunter Harvey comparisons are a little hysterical. Harvey barely played over a four year period.   Hays has missed a good bit of time, but he’s been on the field more than he’s been off it over the years.

Didn’t I read they pulled him as a precautionary measure?

[ScGO's]

Sounds like somebody pulled out the Jump to Conclusions Mat

That’s what Roch said he heard.   But let’s not let that stand in the way of getting hysterical!

Yeah, I'm not sure I buy the "precautionary measure" stuff. Roch "hears" lots of stuff. Bottom line is he was legging out a ground ball, came up limping past the bag and clutching the back of his leg. That's now "precautionary measures", really? Sounds like an injury to me. Every time I've seen that during games, it's been an injury of some degree. Hopefully, it's not that serious, but spare me the "precautionary measures" stuff. I'd be shocked if that was an accurate assessment of the situation. We'll see. Anything is possible, but based on the initial report of what happened to Hays, does not seem likely.

Even if this is an injury, I'm not ready to compare him to Harvey just yet though.

Just a reminder: This season, the Orioles are not reporting injuries or moves in the minors like they have the last few seasons. We most likely will only read "precautionary reasons," until a few days later with a small update.

I will be surprised if the “precautionary measures” don’t keep Hays out of the lineup for at least a few days.   But let’s hope no more than that.

Agreed.

Hays is not in the lineup tonight, but he’s listed as being on the bench, so at least he hasn’t been put on the IL (yet).

Obviously we have to wait and see a bit and see how he responds to treatment. I may have just tweaked his hammy vs pulling it. Saying that, Hays doesn't exactly have a stellar record of healing quick so we'll have to see.

While it's waaayyy too early to start getting all upset and developing comparisons, it is fair to point out that he's lost a decent amount of time to injuries since being a pro. 

So far he doesn't get high marks for durability and though that can change since injuries have not been reoccurring types. So far he's had a wrist sprain, ankle surgery, fractured finger, and now a hammy. I don't know whether this is a good thing or not, but at the end of the day, he needs to find a way to keep himself healthy and on the field.

How do you tweak someone else's hammy?????

As to the injuries, I fear we may have another Reimold.

If Hays breaks his neck I'm blaming you.

Officially on the IL now.
