Bryant set to start rehab stint, nearing return

CHICAGO -- Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant said the last time he missed this many baseball games was when his mother grounded him after he was ejected for arguing with an umpire. Bryant is close to returning from the disabled list and will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Tennessee on Monday. He could rejoin the Cubs in San Francisco this week.

"It's just a feel thing," Bryant said about how much time he'll need in the Minors. "I don't think it'll be anything long. Honestly, just hitting in [batting practice] and in the cages, I feel my timing is pretty good.
