Austin Kearns (thumb) isn't expected to return before the end of the year.
Kearns underwent surgery over a month ago on his injured right thumb. "Unless something unexpectedly happens, we probably will not see him again," GM Mike Rizzo said Friday. "He just started gripping exercises and then it will go to taking balls off the tee, dry swings. So it's a long process from where he is at." Kearns' $10 million option for 2010 will, in all likelihood, not be picked up.

Austin Kearns still isn't ready to begin a rehab assignment following surgery three weeks ago on his right thumb.
There was some thought that he'd be back by now or at least on Sept. 1. If Kearns isn't able to see time in the minors before the season ends, then the Nationals aren't likely to activate him.

Austin Kearns (thumb) is progressing well and could return in the next few weeks.
He was placed on the DL on August 5 and subsequently underwent successful thumb surgery. Kearns could return soon after he is eligible to be activated. "I don't think it will be too much past his DL time," Nationals interim manager Jim Riggleman said. "We should be able to get him swinging again and get him activated. They are working on closing the sutures now."

Austin Kearns had successful surgery on his right thumb Friday.
Kearns is expected to return in late August or early September. "They opened him up there a little bit in his thumb area," said manager Jim Riggleman. "Any invasive surgery is going to take a while to heal. I think Austin will probably be ready within the 15-day period that he's on the DL."

Nationals placed outfielder Austin Kearns on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to August 4, with a right thumb contusion.
Kearns is scheduled to visit a thumb specialist in Baltimore before the weekend. He was batting just 195/.336/.305 with three dingers and 17 RBI. There's a chance he'll be shut down for the rest of the year.
