Ezequiel Tovar Injury: Working off tee

Tovar (oblique) said Tuesday that he has been hitting off a tee for four days, but he has not yet gone through full batting practice, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Tovar has been out of action since departing a game June 2 after tweaking his left oblique. He was able start activity by jogging June 14, and while that was not a gigantic step forward, he has since progressed to taking swings. There is still no set timeline for the shortstop's return.
