Fantasy Analysis
Byrd had been out since April 17 with inflammation in his left knee. He was hitting .129 with one RBI in 13 games for Texas and batted .313 with three RBI during a four-game rehabilitation assignment with Oklahoma. Byrd was not in the lineup on Wednesday afternoon against Seattle and does not figure to be getting regular at-bats. He's best left on the waiver wire in all but the deepest of AL-only leagues for now. (Updated 05/14/2008).
