Related Topics: Biceps

OAKLAND -- Chris Heisey's Minor League rehab assignment has been stopped after the Nationals outfielder had an apparent setback when he tested his ruptured right biceps. Heisey began his rehab assignment with Double-A Harrisburg on Monday, less than a week after he suffered the injury, and he was placed on the disabled list on May 24.

"He might have rushed it some," Nationals manager Dusty Baker said. "I thought [that he was playing] was a miracle in the first place. We'll see. His arm was black and blue, which is to be expected. We'll just have to re-evaluate things.
