Hardy to rehab in Florida when O's hit road

BALTIMORE -- When the Orioles complete their current homestand and head west to begin a road trip against the Angels on May 20, shortstop J.J. Hardy will travel to the club's spring complex in Sarasota, Fla.

Hardy, on the disabled list with a hairline fracture in his left foot, will continue his rehab there, Orioles manager Buck Showalter said on Thursday. There remains no exact timetable for when Hardy will get to remove the protective boot from his foot, although the initial target date was May 29.

Hardy suffered the injury fouling a ball off his foot on May 1 and was placed on the 15-day DL two days later.
