Hamstring injury lingering Angels manager Ron Washington said Wednesday that Drury is still feeling soreness from last week's left hamstring injury, Anthony Bautista of The Sporting Tribune reports.
Impact Drury is out of the lineup Wednesday for a third straight game, although Washington said the 31-year-old is available to pinch-hit. The Angels are idle Thursday, so Drury could be ready to return to the lineup Friday versus the Twins. Luis Rengifo is at second base Wednesday.

Absent from lineup again Drury is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Orioles.
Impact Drury missed three games last week with a hamstring injury before returning to play three straight contests over the weekend. However, he's now been absent from the lineup for all three games of the series against Baltimore, so it's fair to wonder whether the hamstring injury could be lingering. The Angels have a team off day Thursday, so perhaps they're looking to hold Drury out until this weekend versus the Twins.

Won't start Wednesday, Thursday Drury will only be available to pinch-hit Wednesday and Thursday against the Rays due to left hamstring tightness, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Impact Drury may still be used as supplementary help with batting, but will miss his third-straight start come Thursday. Though his ability to still pinch-hit if necessary is good news, the Angels are being cautious with the 31-year-old's hamstring issue, and it is still unknown if he will return to the field Friday against the Reds.

Out again Wednesday Drury (hamstring) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Tampa Bay.
Impact Drury will miss a second straight start with a hamstring issue. He declared himself available to play off the bench Tuesday, so it would seem fair to call Drury day-to-day. The Angels are going with Luis Rengifo at second base and Nolan Schanuel at first Wednesday.

Swats two homers in win Drury went 3-for-4 with two homers, three RBI and three runs scored in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Athletics.
Impact Drury opened things up with a first inning home run and added on with a two-run shot to right center in the fifth.

Drury signed a two-year deal with the Halos before the season, although it's possible the team ships him off to a contender with rumors swirling that a rebuild might be in order.
