FRISCO, Texas -- Josh Hamilton is headed back to Triple-A Round Rock before rejoining the Texas Rangers.
The Rangers said Wednesday, before Hamilton's scheduled fourth game with Double-A Frisco, that the 2010 AL MVP would return to Round Rock for home games Thursday through Saturday.
Hamilton will then be re-evaluated, and could be back with the Rangers for a three-game series that starts Monday at Cleveland.
Texas re-acquired the five-time All-Star in a trade from the Los Angeles Angels on April 27. Hamilton is on the disabled list after off-season shoulder surgery.
Hamilton played six games with Round Rock before joining Frisco for its home stand Saturday when the Triple-A Express went to the Colorado for a series. Round Rock is back home Thursday.
