White Sox's Daniel Palka: Could return over weekend

Palka (hamstring) said Tuesday that he's "symptom free," Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Palka has been dealing with a hamstring injury for a little more than a week now, but the outfielder believes he's in the clear after completing a series of baseball activities -- including running the bases and hitting in simulated games -- with no issues. Assuming he checks out OK in the coming days, Palka could rejoin the lineup as early as Friday against the Angels.
