BALTIMORE -- Ubaldo Jimenez -- the Orioles' most expensive free-agent signing
in club history -- is headed to the disabled list with a right ankle sprain
that he suffered on Wednesday. Jimenez will be replaced on the roster by
right-hander Kevin Gausman, who will start on Sunday against the Yankees.

On a scale of 1-10, manager Buck Showalter said that Jimenez's pain is "an
eight."

"He stepped in a hole in the parking lot," Showalter said of Jimenez. "We
were looking at it today. It's pretty puffy, taped up. He tried to take a
work day yesterday. We were hoping that it would resolve somewhat today. It
did not and he's not going to be able to start tomorrow, so we're probably
going to DL him and backdate him and have him ready post-All-Star break."

Gausman, who is on his way to Camden Yards on Friday afternoon, took a "light
side day" on Thursday for Triple-A Norfolk, and he has been shuttled back and
forth to the Minors despite pitching well. He has allowed one run or fewer in
four of his past five Major League starts.

Jimenez has had a similar injury with Cleveland, and he was shut down early
in the 2012 season. Signed to a four-year, $50 million deal this past winter,
the news of his injury on Friday is the latest in a disappointing first half
for Jimenez. He went 3-8 with a 4.52 ERA in 18 games, including a 1-6 mark
with a 5.29 ERA in nine starts at Camden Yards.

Showalter said because the O's are recalling Gausman within the 10-day
window, they can't backdate Jimenez to his last start. He would be eligible
to pitch the sixth game of the second half, though that's not guaranteed, and
it will be based on Jimenez's rehab progression.

　　金鶯在自由市場上有史以來最貴的自由球員Ubaldo Jimenez由於右腳踝扭傷被放入傷
兵名單，他禮拜日先發洋基的位置將被Kevin Gausman取代。

　　如果對於傷勢的嚴重度有一至十分，Buck Showalter表示Ubaldo Jimenez的傷勢有八
分。

　　Ubaldo Jimenez在2012年於克里夫蘭時有類似的傷勢，這也導致他提前結束該球季，
去年冬天以四年五千萬與金鶯簽約，這是令人失望的最新消息，他在金鶯本季十八場先發
繳出三勝八敗、投手自責分率4.52的成績，包括九場在主場的比賽，成績為一勝六敗、投
手自責分率5.29。

　　目前還不確定回歸時間，一切視復原進度而定。
