Scott Baker downplayed the condition of his right elbow following Tuesday's game. Baker will undergo an MRI on Wednesday after leaving Tuesday's start due to a mild right elbow strain, but said he's merely trying to play things safe. "At this point in the season I'm just trying to be smart about it," said Baker. "I think I almost didn't say anything (to the trainers) to be honest with you, and I was going to continue to pitch with it, but it just was a little more discomfort then I would have liked to continue to pitch with. I think it's just a precautionary thing. Obviously we'll reevaluate it (Wednesday) and see where we're at." Baker had elbow surgery last October, but the good news is that he said Tuesday's discomfort is "not even close" to what he felt last season.
