White Sox outfielder Charlie Tilson will open season on disabled list

GLENDALE, Ariz. _ Jose Quintana will rejoin the White Sox on Tuesday, manager Rick Renteria said.

When Charlie Tilson will return to the field remained a mystery.

The rookie outfielder will begin the season on the disabled list, the team said, after an MRI on Monday reconfirmed that he suffered a stress reaction in his right foot earlier this spring.

The Sox said the MRI did not show a fracture, but "a fair amount of inflammation was present."

Tilson will continue to wear a boot for at least three weeks and will perform no weight-bearing activities.

Quintana, who pitched 5 2/3 innings of no-hit ball for Colombia on Friday in the World Baseball Classic, will return to camp after his country was eliminated from the tournament Sunday.

Renteria expects Quintana to be on his normal routine but said he and pitching coach Don Cooper will discuss how best to prepare the left-hander for the regular season.

"I'm sure Coop has a plan for how we're going to proceed," Renteria said. "I would hope _ and I don't want to make any assumptions _ that he falls into the same slot."

Tilson singled in his major-league debut last year before tearing his left hamstring.

"I don't think it's as strong as it might seem in terms of the effect it's having," Renteria said. "But he felt something, so we erred on the side of caution."
