Rafael Furcal Progressing, John Ely Staying

Rafael Furcal went 0-2 with a walk in consecutive rehab appearances on Tuesday and Wednesday. Barring a setback, he'll be back Friday.

------------------------------------------

John Ely will remain in the rotation for the foreseeable future. Putting up a 13:0 K:BB mark over 2 starts and 12.2 innings will do that for you.
"He's one of our starters right now," Torre said after Ely pitched six-plus innings. "[Vicente] Padilla is more than a month away. I don't see where he's [Ely] in any danger."
"His command has been terrific," said Torre. "He makes it look -- I don't want to say easy -- but simple. And that's the thing that's been escaping our club -- getting deep into the game. He's got us to the seventh inning each time."
