Glaus returns from disabled list

ATLANTA (AP) — The Atlanta Braves activated Troy Glaus from the 15-day disabled list Thursday after the infielder missed 14 games with left knee inflammation.

Glaus spent his rehab stint at Triple-A Gwinnett playing exclusively at third base, the position he played most of his first 11 years before the Braves signed him as their first baseman last winter. Glaus hit .333 in 30 at-bats with two homers and eight RBIs at Gwinnett.

The unstable knee contributed to Glaus’ .173 batting average in a 51-game stretch since June 13. He was the National League player of the month for May.

Glaus lost his status as an everyday player when Derrek Lee was acquired in a trade with the Chicago Cubs last month. Martin Prado is the third baseman with Chipper Jones out for the season with a knee injury.
