[USML Announce] Nukes

[Doug Shabelman]

Give grief to the Gambler, this is what happens....

The pain won't go away for the banged-up A's.
Just as the club welcomed back Esteban Loa
<http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/profile?statsId=5368> iza from
the 15-day disabled list to make a start on Thursday, Rich Harden
<http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/profile?statsId=7180>  returned
to the DL with a strained ligament in his right elbow.
Harden had just come back from the DL with a torn oblique muscle and
made only one start, pitching four innings on Sunday against Minnesota.
But in the third inning, his sore elbow became worse.
He underwent an MRI at the Cleveland Clinic on Wednesday, which revealed
the strain.
Oakland head trainer Larry Davis said Harden, who is 3-0 with a 3.86
ERA, will not need surgery.
Harden will rest his arm until the swelling and soreness subsides. Davis
had no timetable on Harden's return.
