Lance Berkman waiting until September to rejoin Rangers source: http://ppt.cc/Jx5M Lance Berkman has been on the disabled list since July 7 with hip and knee problems, but the veteran designated hitter said yesterday that he’ll wait until at least September 1 to be activated by Texas. Berkman explained to T.R. Sullivan of MLB.com that waiting until rosters expand will make things easier on the Rangers, who otherwise would have to drop someone from the roster to make room for him. Sullivan also notes that Berkman “would likely come back in a limited role, either as a part-time designated hitter or a pinch-hitter off the bench.” He feels good enough to come off the disabled list now, but is far from 100 percent healthy because his right knee “is not great, but it’s not going to be.” Berkman didn’t show much power before going on the DL, but did draw a ton of walks and get on base at a solid .355 clip in 68 games. 總之就是白肥很貼心地表示，九月擴編時再回來讓球隊比較好做事， 不用為了要清一個位置給他而考慮要下放誰或DFA誰。 雖然右膝沒有復原到百分百，但他現在的身體狀況已經足以出DL了。 白肥回來以後的角色大概會是打打DH或當代打。 -- ◆． ２０１０ American League CHAMPION ．◆ ◆． ２０１１ American League CHAMPION ．◆ ★．TEXAS RANGERS．★ Keep walking, Ranger walker. －－ForgerEames --
