David Wright (hamstring) is ready to resume workouts

NEW YORK -- If all goes well, the New York Mets could have David Wright back in the lineup by the end of this week.

Wright, on the disabled list since April 15 with a mild right hamstring strain, reported to the Mets' spring training complex on Sunday and is expected to resume baseball activity on Monday. Wright is eligible to come off the DL on Thursday, but manager Terry Collins said it's unlikely that he would be ready to play that soon.

"If he's back by Saturday, that would be really good," Collins said, before the Mets played the New York Yankees Sunday night.

The Mets have won nine of the 10 games since Wright was hurt. Eric Campbell, who has played third base in Wright's absence, has reached base safely in all 10 games he has played.
