Mookie Betts Hits Minor Setback in Rehab, Still on Track for May Return
Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Mookie Betts (oblique) was expected to begin a rehab assignment this weekend, but on Wednesday, he stated that he felt some soreness in his oblique recently while taking batting practice on the field, so the team backed off his rehab a bit. Since then, the veteran has been hitting in the cage and has said he's "turned a corner," with the expectation that he'll try to take batting practice on the field again. It sounds like a minor setback that should still allow the eight-time All-Star to begin a rehab assignment soon and potentially be back with the team sometime in early May if all goes well. The former MVP was 5-for-28 (.179) before going down with the injury, but two of his five hits were home runs, and he was making good contact (90.7 percent) while recording a 3:4 BB:K, so expect the 33-year-old to put up Betts-like numbers when he returns.
