ST. PETERSBURG -- Daniel Robertson has a cast on his left hand, but he hasn't given up on the idea of playing before the end of the season.
Robertson has been on the disabled list (left-thumb surgery) since Aug. 4.
When asked if he'd like to be back on the field before the end of the season, Robertson answered: "That's my plan."
"I think that [the Rays are] on board as well," Robertson said. "With that being said, I don't think there's going to be any rushing in the process.
