On the mend, Houston edition: Astros outfielder Lance Berkman, coming back from off-season knee surgery, took part in the pregame workout and could be activated in time for a weekend series against St. Louis.
"So far, so good," Astros general manager Tim Purpura said. "He felt confident out there."
The Astros were toying with the idea of having Berkman serve a rehabilitation assignment with Class AA Round Rock. After watching him go through his paces on Wednesday, that seems unlikely.
"We'll see how he feels and the likely course is that he'll come with the club to St. Louis," Purpura said.
