Brusdar Graterol Continues to Throw
Los Angeles Dodgers right-handed reliever Brusdar Graterol (shoulder) played catch again in camp on Monday and appeared to go just beyond 90 feet, according to Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic. Graterol had surgery to fix the labrum in his right shoulder in November of 2024 and was unable to pitch at all last year. The 27-year-old hard-throwing right-hander had a setback late last year, but he appears to be back on track this spring. However, Graterol also isn't expected to pitch in any Cactus League games in spring training, and he's likely to open the 2026 regular season later this month on the injured list. He has struggled to regain his pre-surgery velocity on the mound, so the Dodgers have taken it slow with his throwing program. When healthy, Graterol has already proven that he can be a key late-inning reliever for the Blue, but right now, he's a big question mark because of his shoulder. The Venezuelan hurler had a career-best 1.20 ERA and 0.96 WHIP with a career-high seven saves in 67 1/3 innings back in 2023.
