Guerrero taking batting practice
The Los Angeles Angels received some positive news as injured outfielder Vladamir Guerrero has begn taking batting practice and hopes to return to the lineup shortly.
Guerrero has been out after injuring his pectoral muscle and was unable to swing a bat until it healed.
The team said that Guerrero had an excellent session in the batting cage and they were really happy with the shape he is in despite being sidelined with the pectoral tear.
He has been out since April 16, and it was expected to be about a month or so until he could pick up a bat and swing it, so the Angels feel that he is right on schedule.
They could certainly use his big bat back in the lineup, but they don’t want to rush things too much with the veteran and risk a setback.
