Mike Clevinger Throws Simulated Game
2 years agoChicago White Sox starting pitcher Mike Clevinger (wrist) threw a simulated game before the series opener against the Los Angeles Angels on Monday. "It's just the new gyro slider I'm throwing," Clevinger said. "It's kind of like a position with my hand I probably haven't done before. It's just an adjustment with my body. It's the same thing if you're doing hip mobility in the weight room. That first day you find some new ranges, you're going to cramp up." General manager Rick Hahn said that Clevinger could come off the 15-day injured list before the end of the team's homestand this weekend. The 32-year-old is dealing with right-wrist inflammation and hasn't pitched since May 17. Clevinger will be returning to a 4.56 ERA (5.10 FIP), 1.46 WHIP, 22 walks and 40 K's in 47 1/3 innings over his nine starts.
