In what could be his last attempt at a comeback in 2015, David Wright has yet to suffer any setbacks as he has ramped up his baseball activities, beginning in Los Angeles prior to this homestand, and now at Citi Field in front of Terry Collins, Sandy Alderson, and the rest of the coaching staff.
Wright is expected to travel to Miami with the club tonight, and will workout at Marlins Park while continuing the rehab process with the team. If all goes well, Wright could head to Port St. Lucie following their series with the Marlins, and begin a rehab assignment, Collins said on Saturday.
The process won’t necessarily be quick for Wright to return. Collins said his star third baseman will be, “eased” into games when he begins his rehab assignment.
Wright could very well need the maximum number of days while on rehab assignment before returning, which is 20 for a position player. He has not played in a game since April 14, and it’s been suggested he could need the equivalent of the full slate of Spring Training at-bats and innings – without any setbacks – before returning to the big leagues.
