Masataka Yoshida Resumes Throwing From 60 Feet
Masataka Yoshida (shoulder) has resumed throwing from 60 feet. Manager Alex Cora said that Yoshida is basically restarting his throwing progression ever since receiving a cortisone shot. Yoshida had surgery on his right shoulder in October of last year and has been hitting since spring training. However, the 31-year-old has had complications with his throwing and won't be allowed to return from the injured list and to the major-league roster until he's able to play on defense. He still needs to be cleared for a minor-league rehab assignment, so the earliest we'll see Yoshida make his 2025 season debut will be at some point in June. With Rafael Devers as the club's full-time DH now, the contact-oriented Yoshida will probably be in a part-time outfield role in Boston, limiting his fantasy value in mixed formats.
