3 years agoLos Angeles Angels infielder David Fletcher (hip) has a good prognosis, and head athletic trainer Mike Frostad said that he could be ready shortly after the Angels return home on Friday. Fletcher might need to go on a rehab assignment, but even if he does, he could be back at some point next week, at the latest. The 27-year-old has been out for almost a week with a strained left hip, but he shouldn't be out much longer. Andrew Velazquez has handled the 6 nicely in Fletcher's absence, but Fletcher should return to everyday shortstop duties when he's ready. Fletcher had a triple and an RBI in 13 at-bats over five games before his injury, and he's even less of a fantasy asset hitting down in the Angels lineup this year.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
