Miles Mikolas Plays Catch On Wednesday
4 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas (shoulder) was able to play catch on Wednesday. The plan is for him to do that one more time before the team plans out the next step (likely a bullpen session, then a simulated game). Mikolas was not able to pitch at all last season due to an elbow issue, but he's been bothered more by his shoulder this spring. While there were early concerns that he may be headed for Tommy John Surgery, it seems like all imaging tests came up clean and he's heading in the right direction. He won't start the season in the rotation, but he could work his way into it sometime later in April.
