Hunter Dobbins Throws a Bullpen Session on Monday
Hunter Dobbins (elbow) threw a successful bullpen session on Monday at Fenway Park, and the Red Sox are hopeful to get him on a rehab assignment over the weekend and potentially back in the rotation before or right after the All-Star break. Dobbins will likely need just one rehab outing since he has only been sidelined since June 20 with his right elbow strain. The 25-year-old went 4-1 in his 12 games (10 starts) before landing on the IL, with a 4.10 ERA, 3.86 FIP, and 1.26 WHIP. The Red Sox have multiple starting pitchers dealing with injuries, so Dobbins' return would be a nice boost to the team's rotation. While Dobbins doesn't have a high enough strikeout rate to be a regular fantasy option, he has proven that he can be a streaming or DFS value play in the right matchups when he's healthy.
