HOUSTON -- Astros catcher Jason Castro hopes to begin running and easing in to more strenuous catching activities on Monday as he recovers from a right quad strain that put him on the disabled list on Aug. 29.
Castro said he's progressed well in the days since the injury, working on range of motion exercises to strengthen the quad before upping the activity.
"That's part of what we're looking at as far as the rehab process and kind of the checklist of things I need to do in order to come back," Castro said. "That's kind of where we're headed next, seeing how I respond to not only just the running part of it, but getting back to some catching activities and going from there.
