Breaking News: Well, well, Lo-well


Reports today say that third basemen Mike Lowell took 30-35 groundballs at third, and looked "fantastic". After taking the field reps, he was seen jovially hugging the coaching staff and goofing around - a good indication that he is feeling better from his partially torn labrum in his right hip (note: NOT a shoulder injury). He looked especially good moving laterally, which was causing him pain in the past. This coming after a smooth pain-free batting practice session yesterday. Signs look good for Lowell partaking in the October festivities.

J.D. Drew also took some fielding today, continuing to strengthen his legs after missing a lot of time starting in mid-August due to an ailing back. All reports indicate that he will play, especially after a successful optional batting practice session yesterday.
