Angels outfielder Justin Upton has been out of a walking boot for about three weeks, but he is not much closer to resuming regular baseball activities.
Upton, who is on the 60-day injured list because of a left big toe sprain, hasn’t been slowed by any setbacks, but his recovery is taking longer than expected, he said Saturday at Angel Stadium.
“It’s a slower process than obviously I would like, but that’s the way it has to be,” said Upton, who sustained the injury when he ran into the left-field wall during a home Freeway Series exhibition.
