He began the season in a pinch-hit role and seemed constantly on the brink of returning. He continued to pinch hit even after an MRI on April 17, done at Griffey's request, revealed a partial tear in the hamstring. His last at-bat came April 28, when he aggravated the hamstring while breaking out of the box after hitting a ground ball. He was placed on the disabled list the next day. He was eligible to come off Monday, but no target date has been set for Griffey's return.
