Figgins nears another DL stint

Looks like that one game Chone Figgins played last week before suffering another hamstring setback is all he will get before going on the DL again. Nothing is official but manager Mike Scioscia sounds like he is ready to put Figgins on the shelf. The update with Figgins' latest injury is that it actually is in a different place than the original hamstring strain. This latest problem is more in the hamstring tendon where the previous injury was more in the muscle.

"We're going to have to make a decision with Figgy in a couple of days," Scioscia said. "He's making progress but I think we're into Day 5 now so we'll have to make some significant progress in the next couple of days to project him getting out there to play. We're going to give it as much time as we can but also make sure that his needs are met to get healthy."
