Even though Chris Davis has a history dealing with oblique injuries, which he said helped him distinguish the injury earlier this time around, the Orioles first baseman still can’t pinpoint how long he might be sidelined with a right oblique strain.
Meanwhile, the Orioles are preparing to be without Davis until after the All-Star break.
Speaking for the first time since landing on the 10-day disabled list Wednesday, Davis said Saturday that he's feeling better but is still dealing with pain that has made it difficult to move and sleep. For now, he said he will have to wait about a week to 10 days for the inflammation and swelling to subside before resuming any baseball activities.
