David Ortiz (Achilles) has not ruled out returning from the disabled list this weekend. Ortiz said Thursday after doing some running and agility drills that he's probably at about "50 to 60 percent," but he said he doesn't have to be 100 percent to return. The last step for him will be running at full speed, which he said Thursday he thinks will happen in 3-4 days. "If I can handle it for a couple of days, probably they might give me the green light. But we have to get there first," Ortiz said.
