Andrew Bailey is injured

The Oakland Athletics lost their closer Andrew Bailey to the disabled list as he is continuing to recover from a strained forearm.

Bailey suffered the injury during pitching appearance in spring training on March 14th. The A's feared that Bailey had suffered an elbow injury.

Andrew Bailey said "it's safe to say I'll miss a little time." He said this after throwing for the first time.

In save situations Oakland manager Bob Greene is going to pitch Brian Fuentes or Grant Balfour.
