Rockies pitcher Jason Hammel strained his right groin in Monday's loss to the Diamondbacks. "I don't want to go on the DL," he said. "I pride myself on being a healthy pitcher. We have an extra day off and maybe that will play into the situation and I won't miss any time." Hammel was hurt in the third inning and didn't return. "It happened on the last pitch of the third inning, but the pitch before that I could feel it tightening up," he said. "Then it popped on the last pitch. It doesn't feel too bad."
