Joe Musgrove To Resume Throwing In Late August
1 year agoSan Diego Padres right-hander Joe Musgrove (shoulder) is slated to begin playing catch in a little more than two weeks, around Aug. 24, and then get another MRI exam at the end of the month. Musgrove is optimistic about his return this year, but he's committed to not pushing his comeback from right-shoulder inflammation. If he feels good when he resumes throwing and imaging looks good, he will begin a throwing program that could have him back in the starting rotation by mid-September. Any further damage to his shoulder capsule could require surgery. The 30-year-old has been great for fantasy managers in 2023, but the reality is that even if he's able to return next month, he'll only have a couple starts to close out the regular season.
