Durham is expected to come off the 15-day disabled list Friday and play against the rival Los Angeles Dodgers in the opener of a weekend series between the Giants and Dodgers. Durham's return, after missing two weeks with a hamstring injury, seems all but certain after the Giants optioned second-base prospect Kevin Frandsen to Triple-A Fresno following their 9-3 victory over the Cubs on Thursday. (Updated 5/12/2006) Analysis: Durham looks to improve on a poor start. His hitting percentages are .203/.246/.281 in 18 games this season.
