Manager John Gibbons said Tulowitzki (hamstring) won't return from the disable list Thursday, Gregor Chisholm of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

While it was reported earlier that Tulowitzki was hoping to return for Thursday's series finale against the Braves, that is no longer the case. Gibbons noted that Tulowitzki didn't suffer any setbacks, but the team wanted him to get another rehab start in given he missed a game earlier in the week due to wet field conditions. While an updated return date wasn't provided, it appears the veteran shortstop is close to rejoining the Blue Jays.

Tulowitzki (hamstring) seems to be in line to return to the Blue Jays on Thursday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

There have been conflicting reports on this subject, with some stating that he'll be good to go for Wednesday's contest while others are leaning toward a Thursday return. Given that Tulowitzki is acting as the DH for High-A Dunedin Tuesday, it seems like Thursday is the best-case scenario at this point. Nonetheless, the Blue Jays exact plans will likely come forth in the next couple days.

Tulowitzki (hamstring) is expected to be activated from the disabled list for Wednesday's game in Atlanta, Richard Griffin of The Toronto Star reports.

EDGE Analysis

The shortstop hasn't played since April 22, missing the team's last 24 games. Tulowitzki was slashing .263/.295/.386 over 61 plate appearances before landing on the DL, but had gone 6-for-17 (.353) over the five games prior to his injury. With a few rehab contests until his belt, Tulowitzki should be safe to deploy in fantasy lineups upon his activation.

Tulowitzki (hamstring) was scheduled to play a rehab game Saturday in Dunedin, but instead sat out due to poor field conditions, Steve Buffery of the Toronto Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

The rain and wet field conditions won't push the veteran's timeline back. Manager John Gibbons said Tulowitzki played in a simulated game Sunday that was specifically set up to get the shortstop back on schedule. Tulo will get back to live action on Monday, and according to Gibbons, "he's still on target for [rejoining the team] in Atlanta" later this week. However, the skipper wasn't sure if that would be Wednesday or Thursday.

Tulowitzki (hamstring) played a simulated game Sunday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tulowitzki will remain on his rehab assignment for a couple more days, but is still on track to return at the latter end of Toronto's upcoming series against the Braves. Prior to landing on the disabled list, Tulowitzki had played 16 games and built a .263 batting average and .681 OPS.

Tulowitzki (hamstring) is tentatively scheduled to begin a rehab assignment Saturday at High-A Dunedin and return from the disabled list May 17, MLB.com's Gregor Chisholm reports.

EDGE Analysis

If all goes according to plan, Tulowitzki will play rehab games Saturday, Monday and Tuesday before the Blue Jays activate him in Atlanta prior to the back end of a home-and-home series with the Braves. The Blue Jays have been deploying Ryan Goins as their primary shortstop while Tulowitzki has been sidelined for the last few weeks, but the veteran should settle back into a prominent spot in the lineup as soon as he's activated.

Manager John Gibbons said Tulowitzki (hamstring) is "coming along" and could head out on a rehab assignment over the weekend, Mike Wilner of Sportsnet 590 The Fan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tulowitzki hit the disabled list April 22 with a right hamstring strain and has been slowly increasing his activities over the last two weeks, potentially putting him in line to return by the middle of May. Assuming his rehab stint goes well, Tulowitzki should immediately take over as the starting shortstop upon his activation, pushing Ryan Goins back to a bench role.

Blue Jays general manager Mark Shapiro said he's looking for Tulowitzki (hamstring) to be activated from the DL during the team's nine-game homestand that begins on Monday, Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

The oft-injured shortstop made his first appearance on the DL just 16 games into the season. He was hitting .263/.295/.386 over 61 plate appearances before falling victim to his most recent ailment. Luckily, Tulowitzki avoided serious damage to his hamstring, and has his sights set on returning as early as Monday.

Tulowitzki (hamstring) doesn't anticipate that he'll be cleared to return from the 10-day disabled list by next weekend, Hazel Mae of Sportsnet reports. "I'll be honest, I won't be ready for the Rays series," Tulowitzki said.

EDGE Analysis

The Blue Jays and Rays will get together in Tampa for a three-game series Friday through Sunday, so fantasy owners shouldn't look to activate the shortstop during the new week. Tulowitzki was able to go through batting practice a day ago, but it appears he'll still need some more time before he feels comfortable running the bases and testing his hamstring out in the field. Ryan Goins will continue to act as the Blue Jays' everyday shortstop for the duration of Tulowitzki's absence.

Tulowitzki (hamstring) took batting practice on the field Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Tulowitzki will head to Florida on Sunday to continue rehabbing after the batting practice session went off without a hitch. He still remains without a timetable for return, but the 32-year-old doesn't seem to be too far from game action. Tulowitzki is eligible to come off the DL May 2, but a clearer timeframe of when he'll be activated should start to take shape as he continues to ramp up baseball activities in the coming days.
