Ellsbury not in Sat. lineup; ribs re-injured?
Jacoby Ellsbury - OF - Boston Red Sox
Aug. 7, 2010 - 1:00 PM ET
Jacoby Ellsbury is not in the lineup Saturday after making a diving catch and landing on his ribs Friday.
Ellsbury, who just returned Wednesday from a lengthy absence due to cracked ribs, said he was "feeling it" with the ribs before Friday's game, and then he made the diving catch. Hopefully this is just a precaution and the outfielder will return shortly, but you can't help but be concerned that he has aggravated the injury.
