Newsbreakers

July 21, 2008
The Arizona Republic indicates that Justin Upton is progressing slowly from his left oblique strain. He took some light swings on Sunday and manager Bob Melvin said, "It will be good for him to get some at-bats where he isn't grinding as hard as he was before he went on the DL."

Our View:Upton will go on a minor league rehab assignment when he is ready, but the team does not know when that may be.

July 18, 2008
Outfielder Justin Upton was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a left oblique strain, according to TSN.com.

Our View:Upton has struggled after his scorching start, and has just four RBI after June 1. He isn't someone who should be on fantasy rosters right now.

July 14, 2008
Justin Upton, who is nursing a strained oblique, said he is unsure if he will be ready to return to action when the team resumes play on Friday, according to the East Valley Tribune. He said, "At this point, we're still working on it. We'll see what four days can do and evaluate then."

Our View:Manager Bob Melvin previously noted that he was optimistic Upton would be ready to return following the break. He shouldn't be out very long if he isn't ready for Friday.

July 12, 2008
Manager Bob Melvin is optimistic Justin Upton could be ready to return to action following the All-Star break, acccording to MLB.com. He has not played since straining his left oblique muscle on Wednesday. Melvin said, "Once we get these next three days off, we get him to a workout on Thursday, he should be a full go and hopefully starting the next day."

Our View:As for now, there is a chance Upton could be used as a pinch-runner in an emergency situation Saturday or Sunday against the Phillies, according to Melvin. This is good news, as it was previously believed that he would be placed on the DL.

July 10, 2008
It is not yet known if Justin Upton will end up on the DL due to a strained oblique, but he will at least be sidelined through the D'backs weekend series prior to the All-Star break, according to the East Valley Tribune. "We'll re-evaluate during the All-Star break," GM Bob Melvin said.

Our View:It sure seems like Upton will end up on the DL, but there is no reason for the team to rush into that call as they have about a week before they will have to make that call. Look for Alex Romero and/or Emillio Bonifacio to fill in for now.
