Yeah, allowing him to remain in the game in a rehab assignment if he felt discomfort would be very questionable.
He looked good in the field and couldn't tell that he was favoring his leg, made a couple of plays to his right where he had to stop quickly and plant his right leg. He just looks a bit off, timing-wise, at the plate.
Sun/Mon, watched Sun on TV, went last night. No real groundball action in the field Sun, made a nice play at 2B turning a 6-4-5 (yep) DP (planted and made a strong throw to 3B) and was the cutoff guy on a hit to RF and made a strong throw. Was quick to a hard hit ball to his right, dove, but couldn't quite get it. Didn't notice the knee bothering him or him acting awkward other than b/t 2nd and 3rd on that LL triple. He looked fine swinging after that. I sure hope he didn't have another setback, part of this is me trying to be optimistic about his return. I miss that guy.
Altuve headed to Cincy, team will evaluate him there, could be activated tomorrow. Springer running the bases again today, could go on rehab assignment later this week. McHugh scheduled for another appearance later this week. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/27001528/altuve-return-astros-wed-hinch-says
Sounds like no Springer for the Yankees series. Oh well, I guess he wasn't expected to be back this soon, and the last thing we want is to Kevin Durant him.
