Westburg (hand) has begun hitting in the cage and is participating in full baseball activities, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
It's another positive step in Westburg's recovery from a fractured hand he suffered in late July. The next step would be a rehab assignment with Double-A Bowie or Triple-A Norfolk. Before landing on the IL, Westburg was slashing .269/.317/.497 with 18 home runs and 58 RBI across 420 plate appearances.
