Eaton (oblique) played catch and took light swings Monday, and said he's on track to come off the DL early next week, the Chicago Tribune's Colleen Kane reports. Manager Robin Ventura said a couple rehab games will probably be needed before Eaton is activated, but he should be back in late-August. Eaton was in the midst of a pretty great season as an on-base/speed guy, hitting .304 with a .370 on-base percentage with 12 steals in 94 games.
