Chas McCormick to Face Live Pitching Next Week
Chas McCormick (oblique) will likely face live hitting next week in Florida. The 30-year-old has been shelved since May 31 with a left oblique strain, but has recently progressed to swinging the bat and will soon take the next step in his recovery. He's sporting an unappealing .256/.347/.302 triple slash through 36 appearances with just two extra-base hits (zero home runs). It's worth noting he's been far superior against southpaws (.375) than righties (.229) thus far. However, it's too small a sample to glean any real insight (3-for-8). McCormick projects to require a short minor-league rehab stint.
