Hunter Greene Hoping To Return On Aug. 20
1 year agoCincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene's (hip) estimated return is set for Aug. 20. Greene is making progress after throwing a side session on Tuesday and a live batting practice session on Friday. The 23-year-old hard-throwing starter has a ways to go, though, as he's been on the shelf since the middle of June with a right-hip injury. The Reds have been working with him on strengthening his core so that the issue doesn't arise again once he's back in the major-league starting rotation. Greene will need a minor-league rehab assignment before returning as well, so fantasy managers must continue to be patient and stash him in all formats for his strikeout upside when healthy. Greene had a 3.93 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 100 K's in 73 1/3 innings (14 starts) before going on the injured list.
