Related Topics: Xander Bogaerts, Joe Musgrove

Xander Bogaerts' foot injury has been hit with a rollercoaster of updates. After fouling a pitch off of his foot in late August, it was difficult to determine how long the veteran shortstop would be out.

There were some hints of hope that he would come back to the team prior to the start of the playoffs, but then - even if momentarily - the latest updates had fans believing that he would be sidelined longer than expected.

But now, as we approach the weekend, it appears that Bogaerts will travel with San Diego for the upcoming series on the road against the Chicago White Sox.
