Some good news regarding the Indians' injury situation for a change: Manny Acta said that Choo could be back from the thumb injury by the end of the month.

Shin-Soo Choo went 1 for 3 last night for the Akron Aeros.  He is expected to rejoin the Indians Friday.  There's been no official word on what move they'll make with the roster, but I'd expect him to replace Michael Brantley and Brantley to get sent down.
