Masataka Yoshida Resumes Throwing From 60 Feet
Boston Red Sox outfielder/designated hitter Masataka Yoshida (shoulder) has resumed throwing from 60 feet. Manager Alex Cora said that Yoshida is basically restarting his throwing progression ever since receiving a cortisone shot. Yoshida had surgery on his right shoulder in October of last year and has been hitting since spring training. However, the 31-year-old has had complications with his throwing and won't be allowed to return from the injured list and to the major-league roster until he's able to play on defense. He still needs to be cleared for a minor-league rehab assignment, so the earliest we'll see Yoshida make his 2025 season debut will be at some point in June. With Rafael Devers as the club's full-time DH now, the contact-oriented Yoshida will probably be in a part-time outfield role in Boston, limiting his fantasy value in mixed formats.
