Hamilton is not optimistic about being able to play this weekend against the White Sox. "Probably not," he said. "It's getting better ... not doing any baseball activities, I'm probably feeling 60 percent better. That doesn't mean that if I started swinging the bat, I wouldn't go back to where I was before." The Rangers center fielder, who sustained the injury April 21 in Toronto, last started April 25 against the Orioles in Baltimore. He pinch-hit Sunday, but he hasn't played since then. Hamilton is hoping to resume swinging a bat Friday.

News: Josh Hamilton expects to remain out of the lineup until at least next week even though the slugger's strained left rib cage muscle is feeling better after medication and treatment. He has not yet resumed baseball activity. "I'm good, better," Hamilton said. "That doesn't mean that if I got in here and swung that I wouldn't be right back to where I was." The All-Star center fielder got hurt April 21 when he ran into the outfield wall in Toronto and his elbow folded into the left side of his body. Asked if he could play this weekend at home against the Chicago White Sox, Hamilton responded, "Probably not." He said the hardest part was just not being able to do anything and indicated the earliest he might play could be Monday or Tuesday in Seattle. Manager Ron Washington said he won't even consider Hamilton as a pinch-hitter for now. The Rangers are trying to avoid putting the left-handed slugger on the DL. [...]

Hamilton is sidelined with a strained muscle in his left rib cage and was out of the lineup again Wednesday night. He began a medicine dose pack on Tuesday to treat the injury, and the Rangers will have a better idea on Thursday if that's having an impact. But the Rangers may wait even longer. Hamilton has been out of the Rangers lineup for four straight games. He last appeared in a game on April 26 when he pinch-hit for Elvis Andrus. That means if he does go on the disabled list, he will be sidelined until at least May 12. That's why the Rangers are willing to wait. Owners who have the Texas slugger should monitor this situation closely.

Hamilton was not in the lineup again on Tuesday, and an examination by the Rangers team physician confirmed the original diagnosis of a strained intercostal muscle. Hamilton was given a medicine dose pack to treat the injury, and that usually takes about 48 hours to take effect. "That's why the doctor feels Thursday is a key date," Rangers general manager Jon Daniels said. In Hamilton's absence, Andruw Jones will continue to see the bulk of the playing time in left and could be a decent option in shallow AL-only leagues.

Texas Rangers OF Josh Hamilton (ribs) suffered bruised ribs Saturday, April 25, against the Baltimore Orioles, while sliding into third base on the front end of a double steal, according to The Associated Press. He was held out of the starting lineup Sunday, April 26, but manager Ron Washington said Hamilton is available as a pinch hitter.

Source (mlb.com) (CF - tex) | 0 comments.

Washington and trainer Jamie Reed are hoping a day of rest plus extra time before a night game on Monday might make a difference. Hamilton had a cortisone shot in the area on Saturday. He also had to come out of Saturday night's game in the sixth inning because he was having trouble breathing while running the bases. Hamilton originally injured the rib cage running into a wall in Tuesday's game (April 21) against the Blue Jays. Basically, his arm got caught between the wall and his body, and Hamilton "elbowed" himself in the ribcage. He didn't start on Wednesday, but had an RBI grounder as a pinch-hitter late in the game. Since then, Hamilton has gone 4-for-12 at the plate in three games, raising his average from .226 to .246. Stay tuned for an update.

Hamilton, who has hit safely in five of six games this year, had only one extra-base hit before the two-run blast Sunday. Given his reduced power numbers after the All-Star break last season (11 HR, 35 RBIs), the slugger's slow first week to '09 may have left owners a bit worried. However, it's only a matter of time before he gets rolling, so he remains a must-start in all formats.

Source rotoworld.com. November 22, 2009, 3:59 am ( OF - tex)

Status: Out. Done for season
Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports that the Rangers are planning to Josh Hamilton to a corner outfield spot next season. Sherman writes that the Rangers would make the move in order to protect Hamilton's "fragile body." Limited to just 89 games in 2009 due to various injuries, Hamilton batted .268/.315/.426 with 10 home runs and 54 RBI. He started 55 games in center field in 2009, but is no stranger to right field, either, having started 58 games there over the past two seasons. If the Rangers are unable to re-sign Marlon Byrd, look for Julio Borbon or Craig Gentry to be considered for center field.
