Ryan Ludwick At Least A Week Away

The Reds are hoping to have Ryan Ludwick back soon.

The slugging leftfielder is 15 at-bars into a rehab assignment. A notoriously slow starter, Ludwick has two hits in those at-bats while playing for Dayton and Louisville.

“Ludwick is feeling good, although he is playing so-so," Dusty Baker said. "I’m look at both (his health and his numbers). No. 1 is how he is feeling, but you look at his timing because when he comes back you don’t want him scuffling. We have enough guys scuffling. We want him to be an enhancer rather than a guy playing catch-up. We want him as close to ready as possible.”

The Reds are encouraged by reliever Jonathan Broxton's progress as well.  He is getting his arm in shape at Louisville.
