Todd Helton (forearm) will rest for 4-5 days before being re-evaluated. Helton was finally placed on the DL Thursday after missing the last five games with left forearm inflammation. If the injury responds after the 4-5 days of rest, he could be ready for activation when first eligible on May 5. The inflammation in the tendon leaves him vulnerable to a more serious injury if he doesn't get it under control, though.
