Josh Hamilton went 0-for-5 as the designated hitter for Triple-A
Josh Hamilton went 0-for-5 as the designated hitter for Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday, and is expected to play in at least one more Minor League game before he makes his return to the Rangers.
Analysis: Rangers manager Ron Washington said that Hamilton's return could come sometime next week, depending on the quality of at-bats the big guy puts up during his medical rehabilitation assignment. Hamilton has posted a .100 batting average (2-for-20) over four games so far. When Hamilton is activated, outfielder Julio Borbon is likely to be the player optioned to the Minor Leagues to make room on the 25-man roster. The Rangers already have Nelson Cruz, Marlon Byrd, David Murphy and Andruw Jones as options in the outfield.
