Baldelli is coming back from not just one, but two serious injuries (ACL and Tommy John) so it would've be quite amazing if for him to not only start the season, but be productive.

I would temper my expectations for when he does return. Given the type of injuries, rust, and his relative inexperience....I see a fringe mix leaguer at best if he can stay healthy.

Besides this, he has no talent.

How can you tell? He closest he has gotten to a baseball field is sitting in the stands over the last year.

if he is on your roster, you should be hoping he is a nice 4th OF and maybe he does well enough to be an everyday guy later in the year.

I own him. I like his upside, considering he is only costing me a DL spot.

pondering a pick-up, but it would be nice to know his scheduled return.

no updates? he would seem like a nice pick-up off the WW if he's due back soon.

I dropped him recently, so he should be back pretty soon

What's the latest? Did he play any rehab games?
