Another Setback For Colorado's Rusty Gustafson
Yesterday <Colorado:team#2> shortstop <Rusty Gustafson:player#2598> sustained a setback in his recovery from a thumb contusion. The Bears medical staff told him it would be at least one week before he will be able to return to action. <Gustafson:player#2598> told reporters, "The healing process has gone extremely well. This is just a little hiccup and a little setback." Apparently <Gustafson:player#2598> worked a little too hard in a recent workout and caused more damage. His doctors have advised him to do only light exercise and give the injury time to heal.

This year <Gustafson:player#2598> is batting .315 with 5 home runs.
