| October 1, 2005 Bobby Crosby, who has been hampered by a sore left ankle, will not play again this season, according to the AP. "I'm not going to play the guy if there's pain in there," manager Ken Macha said. "He's got medical clearance, but I don't think it's fair to anybody."

| September 17, 2005 Bobby Crosby said he hopes to return from his fractured ankle early next week, but manager Ken Macha wasn't exactly in agreement, according to the Contra Costa Times. "He hasn't taken (batting practice)," Macha said. "He hasn't fielded ground balls. I've got to see him take BP. I've got to see how he's moving around. I can't put him in the lineup just to put him in the lineup." |
| September 14, 2005 Bobby Crosby resumed hitting off a tee Wednesday as he recovers from a broken left ankle, according to the AP. |

| August 31, 2005 Bobby Crosby, who has missed the last three games with a bruised left ankle, will undergo a CT scan today, according to the Contra Costa Times.

| June 12, 2005 The Contra Costa Times reports that Bobby Crosby could sit out his second straight game today to rest his sore quadriceps. With an off day Monday, the A's might choose to get Crosby the extra rest to make sure the injury doesn't become a significant issue. |

| May 5, 2005 A's trainer Larry Davis said that Bobby Crosby is pain-free for the first time since going on the DL, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

| May 4, 2005 Bobby Crosby played catch from 90 feet for five minutes on Wednesday as he continues to recover from fractured ribs, according to the AP. It was his first baseball activity since suffering the injury on opening day. |
| May 1, 2005 An MRI taken Wednesday revealed that Bobby Crosby has some healing in his fractured ribs, according to the Contra Costa Times. However, he still experiences pain when he breathes deeply or twists his torso, so Crosby may not start a rehab assignment for as many as three more weeks. |

| April 7, 2005 Bobby Crosby has a stress fracture in his ninth and 10th ribs, according to the Contra Costa Times. The A's thought they'd ruled out a fracture following an X-ray Monday, but an MRI Tuesday revealed the injury.

| April 6, 2005 Bobby Crosby was placed on the 15-day disabled list Wednesday with a fractured rib, according to the AP. A's trainer Larry Davis said there is no timetable for Crosby's return, but he will not begin treatment until the pain subsides. Marco Scutaro will replace Crosby at shortstop. |
| April 6, 2005 Bobby Crosby was sent for an MRI yesterday because his sore back had not improved, according to the Contra Costa Times. The A's hope to get the results prior to today's game.

| April 5, 2005 Bobby Crosby said that he injured his upper back during batting practice yesterday and that the injury got progressively worse, according to the Contra Costa Times.
