The Indians have been noncommittal about Bourn's return date of late, but the beginning of an official rehab assignment indicates he is nearly ready to play again.

Bourn (hamstring) ran the bases again Monday, which may precede a rehab assignment later this week, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

Bourn (hamstring) took batting practice Tuesday but it's still uncertain when he'll be cleared for a rehab assignment, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

"He's going to obviously add intensity as he continues to feel better. ... He will just continue to ramp up. And when he's ready to play, we'll send him out to play."

Indians manager Terry Francona said Thursday that there remains no timetable for Michael Bourn's (hamstring) return.

"When he's ready to play, he's ready to play," Francona said. Bourn played catch in the outfield on Thursday but has yet to test out his strained left hamstring with any running. He's already missed nearly three weeks, so it sounds like he'll be lucky to make it back within the projected 3-4 week timetable that was offered when he went down.
