Avoids structural damage
Helsley was diagnosed with inflammation around the UCL in his right elbow Saturday, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Analyse
Helsley landed on the injured list July 3 with elbow discomfort, and although he's dealing with inflammation that will keep him sidelined for an extended period of time, manager Craig Albernaz confirmed that the 31-year-old reliever hasn't suffered any structural damage to his UCL. A timeline for his recovery could begin to come into focus once he begins a throwing program, but the team is optimistic that Helsley will be back before the end of the season. In the meantime, Tyler Wells, Rico Garcia and Andrew Kittredge figure to be in the mix for saves in Baltimore.

Seeking second opinion on elbow
Helsley will solicit a second opinion on his injured right elbow, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Analyse
The Orioles have not revealed the initial prognosis, but Helsley will seek out another evaluation before making a decision as to the next course of action. Helsley missed seven weeks of action with right elbow inflammation earlier this season and landed back on the IL this past Friday with more elbow trouble. The Orioles could have more information on Helsley's status later this week. Tyler Wells has notched two straight saves for Baltimore since Helsley was injured.
