4 years agoCincinnati Reds outfielder Shogo Akiyama (hamstring) is reportedly making progress as he rehabilitates his left hamstring strain. Akiyama injured the hamstring about three weeks ago during a Cactus League game and opened the season on the injured list. He is being assigned to the team's alternate training site in Louisville as he works his way back from the injury. Akiyama said on Saturday, through a translator, "I've been walking. I've been also running and utilizing the machines as well. I've been using my legs and also applying pressure in different places." The Reds have yet to set a return date for Akiyama but he could be back in action by the end of the month.--Matt T - RotoBaller
