Max Kranick Set to Throw on Monday
Free agent right-handed pitcher Max Kranick (elbow) is set to be throwing on Monday, according to Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic. Kranick has been on the shelf since undergoing flexor tendon surgery in July. He was eventually released by the Mets earlier in the offseason. However, it appears Kranick has progressed well and could find a suitor before spring Training. Last season before the injury, Kranick logged 37 innings to the tune of a 3.65 ERA and a strong 1.05 WHIP. During this stint, he allowed only five walks but tallied just 25 punchouts. Through 142 2/3 career innings at Triple-A, the 28-year-old has posted a 3.72 ERA with a 1.19 WHIP, spending most of his time pitching out of the bullpen. If he were to find a suitor, he would likely compete for a middle-relief role during the spring.
