Walker exited Thursday's game against the Giants with a strained right quadriceps, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Walker suffered the injury attempting to beat out a grounder in the sixth inning Thursday. The veteran infielder is being considered day-to-day for now, though manager Don Mattingly didn't sound as optimistic about Walker's status. "The way he kind of pulls up tells you it's going to be a little bit," the skipper said. Walker will likely undergo further evaluation in the coming days, after which the severity of his injury should become clearer.

Walker went 2-for-3 with a double and a run scored in Sunday's win over the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
After seeing his nine-game hit streak snapped Friday and receiving the day off Saturday, Walker got right back to smacking the ball around the yard. He's slashing .368/.442/.447 in May, but the hits haven't come with a lot of production -- he's got only two runs and two RBI in 13 games on the month, and Walker hasn't gone yard since April 13.
