Rockies' Ian Desmond (hand) nearing rehab assignment
Colorado Rockies outfielder Ian Desmond (hand) will begin taking batting practice this weekend.
The Rockies have yet to say when Desmond might start a rehab assignment, but sometime late next week doesn't seem entirely out of the question. He's already been going through full infield drills.
numberFire's metrics currently project Desmond to record a .275 batting average this season with 21 dingers, 65 RBI's and 12 swipes.
