Rafael Furcal's strained left hamstring could be 100 percent by this weekend, Dodgers manager Joe Torre said Thursday with an eye on a return for late next week.
"Even though he doesn't like attention, he's a big ingredient, and in saying that, Jamey Carroll's done a great job," Torre said. "Raffy's got some extraordinary ability, leadership ability, too. He's still in the dugout, but he's reluctuant to say anything because he's on the disabled list."
If Furcal keeps progressing, he could play in rehab games with Triple-A Albuquerque at Colorado Springs on Tuesday and Wednesday then rejoin the team before opening a series with the Padres in San Diego on Friday. But before he is cleared to play, he has to be able to run and perform baseball activities at 100 percent.
"He continues to do well and progress," director of medical services Stan Conte said. "The key is to get him over this 85 percent running level, and we'll do that in the next couple of days, if he's able."
다른 선수와 달리 퍼칼은 엘버커키에서 리헵을 할수 있다고 하는군요. 다음주에 파즈전에 합류하기전에 화, 수요일에 리헵을 할 것이라고...일단 이런 리포트가 뜬것 자체가 현재 상태가 (많이) 좋아졌다는 뜻이겠죠.
Manny Ramirez went 0-for-1 with a walk and run scored Thursday night in his second rehab start for Class A Inland Empire. Ramirez, on his way back from a strained calf, also struck out swinging.
If Ramirez feels healthy Friday, he can be activated on Saturday for the middle game of a three-game set with the Rockies at Dodger Stadium.
Ramirez batted leadoff and played left field, but did not catch any fly balls.
