Ondrusek questionable for intrasquad games

SARASOTA -- Orioles reliever Logan Ondrusek rolled his right ankle on Saturday and is doubtful for the team's intrasquad games later this week.

Ondrusek said he tried to stop quickly while doing one of the team's drills during the first full-squad workout, which involves the pitchers playing positions, and he jammed his ankle.

"Until that [swelling] goes away and I feel comfortable off the mound and throwing, got to kinda take a step back," Ondrusek said. "Which is unfortunate, but at least it's early on in camp and not right at the end."

The 32-year-old Ondrusek joined the O's in July from Japan, and he is competing for one of the final bullpen spots.
