"Padres pitchers Dustin Moseley, who dislocated his left shoulder Wednesday, and Aaron Harang, who has a mysterious sore foot, both could miss their next starts.
Moseley is scheduled to face the Rockies in Colorado on Monday, with Harang following on Tuesday. Harang was in a walking cast after the Padres' 2-1 loss to Washington on Saturday.
"We're giving both time, but there is a possibility our starting pitchers Monday and Tuesday could be different than Moseley and Harang," manager Bud Black said.
When Black kiddingly yelled that at Moseley, the pitcher shot back, "We'll talk later." A final decision is expected to be made on Sunday.
The likely candidate to start in place of Moseley is Anthony Bass, who is 6-3 with a 3.53 ERA at Double-A San Antonio and would be making his major-league debut. Left-hander Wade LeBlanc, who is 5-1 with a 5.24 ERA at Triple-A Tucson, would probably start Tuesday for Harang.
Bass, a hard thrower, last pitched June 5 and was held out of his scheduled start Friday. LeBlanc last pitched Tuesday."
