The Englishman told Rangers website: Nikos operation went well, the stitches came out on Monday, which he is pleased about and the inflammation is down.He is going through the normal four weeks [recovery period] and then after four weeks he will revisit the surgeon and hopefully get the green light to push on from there.It is a really structured week-by-week programme, there is no cutting corners and unfortunately it is a very common injury in football now but the programme is set. Kranjcar was injured in a training ground accident It is a week-by-week programme and you cant be doing well at four weeks and jump ahead to eight, it doesnt work that way, you have to go step after step.He is in great hands and his attitude is first class and we have no doubt he will return back fitter and stronger than ever.Warburton has also been left frustrated after seeing promising midfielder Jordan Rossiter suffer another a setback in his fight for fitness.The 19-year-old Liverpudlian is nursing a calf injury, having not played since late August when he hobbled off against Kilmarnock. Six months half price Upgrade to Sky Sports now to watch Man U v Arsenal on Saturday and get the first 6 months half price Jordan is getting there, he had a small setback and there is a lot of work being done with him, said Warburton.Jordan is a boy who just wants to play football. His ability is more than evident to anyone who has seen him play this season.The frustration is obvious, but hes working hard and these things happen, these frustrations come with the game.Jordan is very frustrated at the moment, but there is no doubt his quality is there and well see it sooner rather than later Im sure. Rangers midfielder Jordan Rossiter is still out of action with a calf problem Meanwhile, Warburton has sent first-teamers Philippe Senderos, Danny Wilson, Matt Crooks, Martyn Waghorn and Barrie McKay north with the Light Blues U20s side for Tuesdays development league clash with Ross County.Centre-backs Senderos and Wilson are making their way back from injury and Warburton wants the rest of the group to pick up some valuable action ahead of Saturdays Ibrox clash with Dundee.Warburton said: We had a decent session on Monday and four or five of the boys will be involved in the U20s game on Tuesday at Ross County.That is good for them and means they can get some pitch time after the break, that has worked out well for us and they have a good playing surface up there. Philippe Senderos will be in action for the U20 side on Tuesday We will probably look to involve Philippe and Danny from a defensive point of view, Matt Crooks and Barrie McKay will get some pitch time and Waggy will play too.Waggy, all credit to him, was keen to play in the last 20s game, but it was an artificial surface and we were hesitant.They are putting four or five first-teamers out as well, so hopefully it will be a good test and they will look forward to that.We were down to two centre-halves and all credit to the medical and performance guys for working so hard and to the boys for putting the effort in.They boys are back and training with us and they need minutes now, at the moment Clint and Rob have the jerseys but it is about being ready when your chance comes along.Upgrade to Sky Sports now to watch Man Utd v Arsenal this Saturday and get the first six months half price!Also See:ONeill rules out ScotlandBarton leaves RangersUnited face QueensGet a ￡10 free bet!Miles Bridges Hornets Jersey .ca!

Read below.NEW YORK -- David Ortiz was annoyed -- with himself and New York Yankees catcher?Austin Romine.Starting his final series at Yankee Stadium, Ortiz went 0-for-5 with two strikeouts and stranded seven runners as the Yankees beat the Red Sox 6-4 on Tuesday night and delayed Boston from clinching the American League East.Big Papi ended the game by fanning with two runners on when Tyler Clippard threw him a high, backdoor cutter. The 40-year-old slugger was succinct, saying, That aint fun.Ortiz also didnt like all the trips to the mound by Romine.They tricked me tonight. Too much talking between the pitcher and catcher, Ortiz said. Ill trick them tomorrow.Despite a stellar season, Ortiz said before the game that there is no way he will change his mind about retirement.My body is counting the days, let me tell you, he said. Its hard to play baseball when you are 40. Im not going to lie to you, its hard -- especially when youre looking everywhere around and everybodys 20. You can be a dad.Ortiz is hitting .318 with a major-league-leading 48 doubles, 37 homers and 124 RBIs. He hopes to earn a fourth World Series ring with the Red Sox.You often wonder why hes retiring, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.

New York has planned a pregame ceremony for Thursday.Yankee Stadium, it might be my favorite place to hit, to play, regardless, he said. The dimensions are perfect for a left-handed power hitter.

Despite the rivalry, I think people appreciate baseball. They appreciate really talented players, and I would expect David to receive a similar treatment.Ortiz has been booed at Yankee Stadium since he joined the Red Sox for the 2003 season. But the jeers got more intense as his career progressed and he helped the Red Sox overcome a 3-0 deficit against New York in the 2004 AL Championship Series, then won World Series titles that year and in 2007 and 2013.It got more powerful now, he said. They know me a little bit more now.Ortiz took notice that a fan launched a website, moonbigpapi.com, encouraging spectators at Ortizs Yankee Stadium finale on Thursday to moon the Boston star.Can you imagine? Ortiz said, laughing. If it happens, Im going to make sure I got my cellphone in my back pocket.A previous version of this story incorrectly identified Gary Sanchez as the Yankees catcher Tuesday night.
