Soriano to start rehab assignment
July 20, 2008
HOUSTON (AP) -Cubs outfielder Alfonso Soriano will begin a rehab assignment on Monday with Chicago's rookie league team in Arizona and is expected to come off the disabled list on Thursday.
Soriano has been on the DL since June 12 because of a broken left hand. He took batting practice in Houston on Friday and felt good enough afterward to target a return this week.
If all goes well in Mesa on Monday, Soriano will play with Triple-A Iowa in Tucson on Tuesday and could rejoin the Cubs for their four-game series against Florida, beginning Thursday at Wrigley Field.
Soriano was one of seven Cubs chosen for the NL All-Star team. He's hitting .283 with 15 homers and 40 RBIs in 51 games this season.
