Tulowitzki nearing return
Colorado Rockies shortstop Troy Tulowitzki is getting closer to returning to the team after going down with a wrist injury.
Tulowitzki has started to take light batting practice and has been making outstanding progress.
The team considered making a trade to find someone to fill in for Tulowitzki while he was out but opted instead to remain patient.
That appears to have paid off, as the shortstop is ahead of schedule in his recovery from the wrist injury.
It looks like Tulowitzki could be going on a rehab assignment in the next week or so and rejoin the Rockies by early August.
