Justin Morneau is out for the rest of the season because of a stress fracture in his lower back. Despite having to miss the final 20 games of the season, he finished with 30 home runs, 100 runs batted in and a .274 batting average. "It's sore when I do certain movements like swinging," he said. "Guys are sore all the time, and you just learn how to play through it. I thought it was one of those things I could play through, but I found out that I couldn't." Morneau reiterated that there will be no surgery. "I'll rest it and let it heal, then start doing some low-impact stuff, get in the pool and start (rehab) workouts and not put a lot of pressure on it," he said. "Then I'll get back to regular workouts, and in January I should be 100 percent and ready for spring training."
