Nelson Cruz is headed to the Arizona instructional league in hopes of preparing himself to return to the Texas Rangers for the postseason.
His 50-game suspension in the wake of the Biogenesis scandal ends on the final day of the regular season.
"It's been a really rough few weeks," said Cruz, who hopes the Rangers will activate him for the playoffs. "But I have good friends and good family. They're behind me."
Talking to the media without taking questions, Cruz apologized to the organization and its fans "for the mistake that I make."
