HBT: Longoria is ready to ramp up his rehab

Rays manager Joe Maddon offered some cryptic comments earlier this week regarding Evan Longoria?s recovery from a partially torn left hamstring, but he is moving in the right direction.

According to Bill Chastain, Adam Berry and Greg Zeck of MLB.com, Longoria said yesterday that he?s ready to ramp up his rehab process. The 26-year-old third baseman was pulled from a minor league rehab assignment last week after feeling discomfort in the hamstring, but he told reporters that he?s confident he?s ?not back to square one.?

?We?re finally moving back forward again,? Longoria said. ?It wasn?t like I thought ? it wasn?t anything major. ? I?ve already missed enough time as it is, and I don?t want my season to be over at this point by doing something stupid. That was the decision; it was my decision.?

Longoria has been sidelined with the injury since the end of April. He?ll still need to make it through batting, fielding and running drills without incident before being cleared to begin another rehab assignment, but it sounds like his return might not be too far off after all.
