Adrian Beltre took live batting practice yesterday but even though he is eligible to return to work today it doesn’t look like it is going to happen.
I don’t think he’s been 100 percent yet 100 percent is a little bit of a misnomer in practice; 100 percent in game speed, the only way to get to that is to get in games. There’s a practice speed of 100 percent, and I don’t know that he’s at that yet. The bottom line is, we are in the information-gathering stage, and how he feels, We’ll go from there. The only thing that is going to affect our decision is where Adrian is at and where the medical team is atManager Jeff Banister
