Nelson Cruz

[Matthias]

As a Cruz owner Im a little worried. Hamstrings are a weird thing and sometimes take a year to be fully back to full health.

He stole three bases, the night after being taken out for his hamstring.

Yah, against the battery of Wakefield and Victor Martinez. Vlad stole 2 that night and I think the Rangers stole something like 14 overall. John Kruk could've put on a uniform and even got a couple of swipes that night.

So will Nelson be back in the lineup Thurs or Fri?

[Reeron]

He will be in the dugout Thursday, but everyone keeps saying he will have the day off and play his first game Friday. Maybe he pinch hits Thursday, but otherwise he isn't supposed to play.

[k.k.]

Cruz is to be activated on Friday. Word is he'll sit for one of the weekend games too, Sat or Sun, as part of his return.
