Piniella sits injured Milton Bradley

CHICAGO, April 23 (UPI) -- Chicago Cubs Manager Lou Piniella says outfielder Milton Bradley will not play again until his strained right groin is completely healed.

The right fielder has one hit in 23 at-bats (.043) since the 2009 season started, including no hits in four at-bats with three strikeouts Wednesday against the Cincinnati Reds.

"He's not 100 percent," Piniella said on the team's Web site before Thursday's game against the Reds. "I don't play people unless they're totally healthy. When he's 100 percent, I'll put him out there. Until then, I'll use (Reed) Johnson and (Micah) Hoffpauir in the outfield."

Bradley, one of baseball's top sluggers, signed a 3-year, $30 million contract with the Cubs during the off-season.
