Johan Rojas Expected To Begin Throwing Next Week
Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Johan Rojas (shoulder) has not been throwing during the early part of camp but is expected to be cleared next week. Rojas sustained a shoulder injury during the Dominican Winter League and has been sidelined due to a precautionary measure. However, seeing that Rojas is nearing a return to action suggests the injury was not very serious. Last season, the 24-year-old logged a career-high 120 games with the Phillies. He held a .242/.279/.322 slash line. He tallied three home runs and swiped 25 bags. He was graded as an elite defender as he placed in the 93rd percentile in range and 97th in arm strength. He also placed in the 100th percentile in sprint speed. When healthy, Rojas will likely serve as the backup option in center field and carry little fantasy value.
