Casey Janssen (shoulder) expects to appear in Grapefruit League action by the second week of March.

Janssen underwent right shoulder surgery in November in order to relieve discomfort in his AC joint. As long as he doesn't have a setback, he should be fine for Opening Day. "I'm still working through some stuff to build strength but I'm pretty happy with where I'm at," Janssen said. "The doctors said 100% (recovery) is right around four months. Three months is (Feb. 16) so as long as I don't have a setback I'm in a good place."
