NEW YORK — Another week, another ailment for the increasingly brittle Jacoby Ellsbury.
The 34-year-old New York Yankees center fielder has plantar fasciitis, extending a stay on the disabled list that began with an oblique injury and was prolonged when he hurt a hip.
"It's just trying to get him back to a point here he can start in on baseball activities," Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Monday.
Ellsbury got hurt early in spring training and has been on the disabled list since the start of the season. He did not play in any exhibition games from March 1 until March 24 because of the oblique injury and finished spring training 1 for 14.
