Troy Glaus nearing return?

[The Big Train]

I can't find any online articles to confirm this, but RotoTimes is reporting that the Jays will activate Glaus from the DL when he is eligible later in the coming week. RotoTimes suggested that he could be activated for the April 25-26 series against the Yankees that begins Wednesday, but this would be appear to be incorrect as he was placed on the DL effective April 13 meaning that a return during the four game set with the Rangers starting Friday would be more likely.

News: Blue Jays 3B Troy Glaus (15-day DL, left heel) is expected to join the team in New York for the April 25-26 series against the Yankees, manager John Gibbons said Saturday. However, Glaus is not eligible to return until April 28 against the Rangers.

Analysis: It looks as though Glaus will be ready to come off the DL on time, but since it will be toward the end of Fantasy Week 4 (April 23-29) leave him out of active rosters. When healthy, he is a useful Fantasy 3B in all formats.

Apr 26 Glaus was scheduled to take batting practice on Thursday and the Blue Jays hope to have him back this weekend.
Advice: Glaus was placed on the disabled list a few weeks ago with a bone spur in his left heel. Glaus was hitting .333 in eight games. The Blue Jays are starting a four-game home series with the Texas Rangers on Friday with Glaus scheduled to come off the DL Saturday.

Apr 25 Jordan Bastian, of Toronto.BlueJays.MLB.com, reports Toronto Blue Jays 3B Troy Glaus (heel) will join the team in New York Wednesday, April 25, and take part in batting practice and fielding drills. If everything goes well, the team would likely activate prior to their game Saturday, April 28, against the Texas Rangers.
