Taking it slow with Street; Francis throws without pain

"Huston Street's visit to Dr. James Andrews in Alabama was driven by his desire to receive a second opinion. The results of that exam confirmed what the Rockies have told him: there's inflammation, but no structural damage. But the Rockies are determined to take it even slower with Street, further delaying his return to the big league roster. He's going to do strengthening exercises longer before even attempting to play catch.

Street had hoped to be back in the big leagues closing games by May 1. That seems overly ambitious at this point. My best guess is May 15. But that's all it is a guess until Street redlines off a mound again and sees how his shoulder responds. "
