Aubrey Huff underwent an MRI which revealed a sprained right knee.

Huff suffered the injury Wednesday when he fell over the dugout railing trying to make his way to the mound to celebrate Matt Cain's perfect game. Giants manager Bruce Bochy conceded Thursday that he will likely have to miss "some time" and a stint on the disabled list sounds like a real possibility.

Aubrey Huff is expected to start at first base Friday against the Marlins.

Huff has just 10 at-bats since returning from an anxiety disorder earlier this month. He's strictly a part-time player at the moment, but Brandon Belt has done little to take advantage of regular playing time.

Aubrey Huff is starting at first base Wednesday.

It's his first start at the position since April 21. Huff is a part-timer now and carries little fantasy value.

Giants manager Bruce Bochy said Aubrey Huff will get a start -- likely at first base -- sometime during the team's upcoming road trip.

Huff has only pinch-hit since being activated from the DL on May 7 following a bout with an anxiety disorder. He seems likely to remain more of a role player at this point and shouldn't be owned in fantasy leagues.

Aubrey Huff is not expected to start Wednesday against the Dodgers.

Huff has been limited to one pinch-hit appearance since being activated from the disabled list Monday. Giants manager Bruce Bochy would prefer to see more of him off the bench before working him back into the lineup. Look for Gregor Blanco, Melky Cabrera and Nate Schierholtz to start in the outfield Wednesday against Chad Billingsley.

Giants activated 1B-OF Aubrey Huff from the 15-day disabled list.

The 35-year-old has been out since April 21 while dealing with an anxiety disorder, but he's feeling better, saying, "let's go out and have fun again." The owner of a .182/.300/.333 batting line, Huff will be a semi-regular, splitting time between first base and the outfield.

Aubrey Huff (anxiety) is listed as a reserve for Monday's game against the Dodgers.

This suggests that Huff will be activated from the disabled list, though the Giants have yet to make an official roster move. The 35-year-old has been out since April 21 while dealing with an anxiety disorder.

Giants manager Bruce Bochy said no decision has been made on whether Aubrey Huff (anxiety) will be activated from the disabled list Monday.

The Giants will wait until Monday to make a decision, but it will be a surprise if he's not activated. Huff has been out for the last couple weeks while dealing with an anxiety disorder.

Giants manager Bruce Bochy said he expects Aubrey Huff (anxiety) to return from the disabled list when first eligible.

Good news. Huff has already rejoined the team after dealing with an anxiety disorder, but he won't be eligible for activation until May 6. He's batting just .182/.300/.333 with one homer so far this season.

Aubrey Huff (anxiety) is expected to rejoin the Giants on Friday or Saturday in San Francisco.

Huff was placed on the 15-day disabled list Wednesday so he can't be immediately activated. But it's good news nonetheless that he's feeling well enough to return to the Giants' clubhouse. The 35-year-old is battling an anxiety disorder and is currently undergoing treatment. It's not clear when he might be ready to resume playing in major league games.

Giants placed 1B Aubrey Huff on the 15-day disabled list with an anxiety disorder.

Huff left the team on Monday morning and flew back to his home in Florida for what was being described as a family emergency. But it turns out that he's battling more of an internal, personal issue. The 35-year-old had one of the worst games of his career on Saturday, going 0-for-4 in a loss to the Mets and failing to cover second base on a crucial late-innings defensive play. It's fair to wonder whether these anxiety issues are related.

Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle writes that the Giants will make a roster move involving Aubrey Huff prior to Wednesday's game.

Huff left the team Monday to attend to a family emergency in Florida. The Giants already plan to call up Joaquin Arias from Triple-A Fresno, but the exact nature of the roster move isn't yet known. It's possible Huff could be placed on the bereavement list or the seven-day personal leave list. We should know more in the next couple of hours.

Aubrey Huff is expected to rejoin the Giants Tuesday.

Huff is not in Tuesday night's lineup against the Reds but it is believed that he will be available off the bench. The 35-year-old took a sudden flight to Florida on Monday to handle a family emergency.

Giants' manager Bruce Bochy confirmed that Aubrey Huff wasn't available for Monday's doubleheader against the Mets because he had to attend to a personal matter.

Brandon Belt started both games at first base Monday while Melky Cabrera played left field and Nate Schierholtz played right. It's not clear if he'll rejoin the team in time for Tuesday's game against the Reds.

Aubrey Huff went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer, three RBI and a walk in Friday's win over the Pirates.

Bruce Bochy's unwavering faith in Huff has been rewarded. He had an RBI single in the bottom of the first and connected for a two-run blast inside the right field foul pole in the eighth. Brandon Belt better get comfortable on that bench.

Aubrey Huff (back) expects to return to the lineup Tuesday.

Huff has been nursing a minor back ailment but is feeling better and should be ready after Monday's off day. He's looking to bounce back from a disappointing season that saw him bat just .246/.306/.370 with 12 homers.

Aubrey Huff homered and walked in Monday's loss to the Brewers.

It's worth noting that Huff slugged six homers in Cactus League play last year and ended up batting just .246/.306/.370 with 12 homers, 59 RBI and a .676 OPS during the regular season. However, Huff appears in much better shape this spring as he tries to fend off young Brandon Belt for the starting first base job. So far, so good.

Aubrey Huff told Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle that he expects to be in top shape for spring training.

"I'm feeling physically better this year," said Huff, who spent most of the winter working out at Athletes' Performance Institute (API) in Arizona and resuming Pilates. "I know I'm making a lot of money to go out and get it done, and last year I didn't do it. I took a lot of heat, and I should have. I've got to go to spring training and prove myself and basically win a job, because I've got two young kids breathing down my neck." Huff, who turned 35 in December, batted just .245/.305/.370 with 12 homers, 59 RBI and a .676 OPS over 579 plate appearances last year. He is under contract for $10 million in 2012, but will likely have to compete with Brandon Belt and Brett Pill for playing time.

Giants manager Bruce Bochy said Thursday that Aubrey Huff not do enough to get in shape for the 2011 season.

And it showed on the field, as Huff batted just .246/.306/.370 with 12 homers and a .676 OPS over 579 plate appearances. The Giants expect him to work harder this winter and have told him to be prepared to play the outfield. "Aubrey knows it's going to be different," said Bochy. "That can't happen again or you've got to make changes." Huff would likely be one of the worst defensive outfielders in baseball, but it could finally give Brandon Belt a chance to play everyday.

Giants manager Bruce Bochy said he will not give Aubrey Huff any more starts the rest of the way.

Bochy wants to get a longer look at Brandon Belt and Brett Pill. Huff, who has already been receiving regular days off of late, has been a huge disappointment after signing a two-year extension last offseason, batting just .245/.305/.370 with 12 homers and 59 RBI over 519 at-bats.
