The AP reports that Chipper Jones (OF) Atl threw lightly and took batting practice on Thursday, two days after injuring his right shoulder. Jones is hoping to be back in action as soon as this weekend.
Carlos Delgado (1B) Fla missed his seventh straight game Wednesday with a sore left elbow, according to the AP. Marlins manager Jack McKeon said the team has considered placing him on the DL, but he doesn't think it will be necessary. Delgado will take batting practice Thursday or Friday.
