HARRISON BADER NEWS

Recovering in Florida Bader (ribs) is easing back into things at the Cardinals' facility in Jupiter, Florida, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Impact Manager Mike Shildt said Jupiter will be a more controlled setting for Bader to take at-bats once he's ready to do so. To this point, the center fielder has done nothing but light work since going on the injured list May 25, so he likely remains a few weeks from returning to the Cardinals.

Not close to return Manager Mike Shildt said Tuesday that Bader (ribs) is still resting and will be sidelined "a little bit longer than we anticipated," Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat repo...

Impact The 27-year-old landed on the injured list with a right rib hairline fracture May 25 and had been taking part in light baseball activities, but Shildt said the outfielder has been unable to "get over the hump" in his recovery.

Dons glove Friday Bader (ribs) was seen wearing a fielder's glove and doing light throwing before Friday's game against the Reds, the Associated Press reports.

Impact The recovering outfielder has seemingly been on an upswing physically, as he also was spotted doing some throwing and taking swings earlier in the week. Bader is eligible for activation beginning Saturday, and although he seems virtually certain to remain on the injured list past that date, an early-week return doesn't seem unrealistic given recent news.

Upping physical activity Bader (ribs) has started some light throwing and swinging a bat, the team's official site reports.

Impact The relatively quick return to some type of physical activity is encouraging for Bader, who just went on the injured list May 25. Nevertheless, manager Mike Shildt remains unsure of whether Bader will be healthy enough to be activated when first eligible Saturday, but there is optimism his time on the shelf won't extend much further that under any circumstance.
