Allen Craig has yet to test out his left foot with any defensive drills.
Craig is feeling well enough to serve as a DH in Boston for Games 1 and 2 and a pinch-hitter in St. Louis for Games 3 and 4 of the World Series. If he keeps progressing, it's possible he could start at first base in Game 5 versus lefty Jon Lester. While he hasn't officially been told he's on the roster yet, it appears to be a formality at this point. "All indications are pointing that way," said Craig. "I haven't been told, 'Hey, you're on the roster.' But, I think, given my progress, I'm in a good spot."
