EDGE Analysis
Worley was placed on the 15-day DL on June 14 with a right groin strain, but could be back to the team as early as Friday. He pitched in an earlier rehab stint Saturday, allowing one earned run on five hits during 1.2 innings of work, but said that it went well Tuesday as he was able to sequence pitches and locate better than his previous outing.

Worley (groin) said that he feels that he'll be ready to come off the DL on Tuesday, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Worley was roughed up for a run on five hits over 1.2 innings during a rehab outing with Double-A Bowie on Saturday, but he said he felt great during the session and was pleased with his velocity and command, which carries more importance than his actual results. Assuming the Orioles feel as comfortable with Worley's health as the pitcher does, he should reclaim a long-relief role upon his activation.

Worley (groin) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Thursday, then make a rehab appearance at Double-A on Saturday, MASN Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Worley's timetable will be June 28 if the Orioles only give him one rehab appearance and that may be all he needs. He would be back on the roster after the minimum 15 days. Worley should return to his long relief role at that point. There is no indication that he is a candidate for a rotation spot, but he could challenge Ubaldo Jimenez if Jimenez struggles.

It's unclear exactly when Worley suffered the injury, but he surrendered a pair of runs on a home run in his last outing Sunday. He remains without a timetable for a return as of now, but Odrisamer Despaigne was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday to take Worley's roster spot in his absence.
