Orioles' Chris Johnson: Hopeful for mid-June return

Johnson (forearm) swung a bat for the first time since injuring himself in early April, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.

Johnson seems to be in line with the original 6-to-8 weeks he was expected to miss after breaking the ulna bone in his forearm. Barring any setbacks, the Orioles are hopeful he will be able to return to action around mid-June.
