CINCINNATI — Starling Marte, who is rehabbing from a right oblique injury, did some baserunning at Great American Ball Park Wednesday and started to take swings in an indoor cage over the weekend.
“He re-engaged in some light baseball activities over the weekend, continued that progress today in Cincinnati,” Pirates director of sports medicine Todd Tomcyzk said. “The early reports have been positive. He also has started swinging again, so he is making very nice progress in his return from the disabled list.”
Marte was placed on the 10-day disabled list Friday after tweaking his oblique on a swing last Tuesday.
