Catcher experiences tightness in right hamstring

BOSTON -- It's a minor injury to a Minor League player. And still it's major
news.
Matt Wieters, Baltimore's top prospect, left Triple-A Norfolk's game against
the Gwinnett Braves with cramping in his right hamstring on Friday. He
singled in the first inning and pulled up lame, and the Tides pulled him for
precautionary reasons. Wieters, who is batting .292, will be re-evaluated on
Saturday.
Wieters, the fifth overall pick in the 2007 First-Year Player Draft, started
his season 1-for-8 before heating up. The switch-hitting catcher had hits in
each of his last four games before Friday night.
Wieters was named Baseball America's Minor League Player of the Year in 2008
after hitting 27 home runs between two levels.
The Orioles wanted Wieters -- who has fewer than 500 professional at-bats --
to get a little experience at Norfolk before they promoted him to the Major
Leagues. They expect to see him sometime before the All-Star break, but this
injury -- if it turns out to serious -- could delay his promotion
indefinitely.

原本預計可在ASB之前上來
不過如果傷勢較重的話可能會影響他被拉上major的時間
