A few days ago Corey Hart admitted that his foot problems are “not going to go away” and today the Brewers first baseman suffered an apparent setback during a pregame baserunning session.

Hart, who’s out of the lineup today for the sixth straight game with a partially torn plantar fascia in his left foot, told Adam McCalvy of MLB.com that “it didn’t go as planned.”

Hart didn’t rule out returning to the lineup Tuesday, but called his current status “a little frustrating” and indicated that he’s nowhere near full strength. McCalvy reports that Hart may get an anti-inflammatory injection, but at this point he’s seemingly no sure thing to play again this season.
