The latest news from Rotowire isn't so optimistic:

Apr 28 Hamilton (ribs) will be further examined by team doctors on Tuesday and could end up on the 15-day DL, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Recommendation: Hamilton was unable to complete a second round of batting practice on Monday. A DL stint would be a bit of a surprise given Texas' outfield depth, especially with David Murphy's bat heating up, but he'll likely miss the next few games at a minimum.

anyone think julio borbon will get the call to replace hamilton in CF when hamilton ends up on the DL? i'm dying to stash him away in my yahoo dynasty league and if gets the call yahoo will add him.

Ugh i hate this kind of injury.

I'd rather it have been a 2-3 weeks out for sure thing than a rib injury that could he could be back in a few days from but be bothered by for months. Although it sounds like he will be DL bound anyway.

I doubt they call up borbon because they don't need a replacement starter, just a bench guy. Cruz/Byrd/Jones/Murphy is plenty to start. I imagine it will be brandon boggs.
