Does he play over the weekend?

[Ironman92]

I'll guess yes.....since he's a "gamer"

[smixsell]

He shouldn't IF there is any risk of aggravating the injury.

I sure hope he's back tomorrow, worst case on Sunday. But to echo what smixsell said, I only want him back if he's at or close to 100%.

3.5 games is a small cushion, but it's a cushion nonetheless. If it gives time for BP to be fresh and healthy for the last 8 weeks of the season, I am all for it. Votto should be good to go soon as well, and I like our chances if those two are healthy.

Lately I like our chances regardless of those two, really. They just play like a team and they can win anyway.

According to Dusty he is available tonight to PH and will be back manning 2nd base tomorrow night...we just have to wait and see..

I would see and wait on tonight's outcome. If we win, he sits another day, if they win Saturday, I give him Sunday off...As long as we are winning, why not allow some extra time for the leg to heal.

I'm with you on that. The fresher he is for the stretch run, the better.

Depends, every game we win is another day to rest that leg. I think Sunday will be his return, but I'm just guessing like everyone else.
