Meadows (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with the Gulf Coast League Pirates on Friday.
Almost five weeks to the day after he was placed on the DL with a hamstring strain, Meadows is ready to return to active competition. He figures to spend a week or two at the lower levels before ultimately returning to Triple-A Indianapolis, where he was hitting .248/.313/.358 before the injury. The Pirates are in the mix for a postseason spot and it's not a lock that Meadows will get an extended look with the big club later in the season.
