Bryan Woo Makes Third Rehab Start Over The Weekend
7 months agoSeattle Mariners right-hander Bryan Woo (elbow) made his third minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma on Saturday night and pitched into the fifth inning, giving up no runs on three hits while walking none and striking out six. The 24-year-old threw 66 pitches, and his fastball velocity was up to 95.7 mph. He was shut down in spring training with right-elbow inflammation and opened the season on the injured list. Woo has a 17-to-0 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 11 1/3 scoreless innings in three rehab starts with Tacoma and looks ready to join Seattle's starting rotation, although the M's haven't announced when that might happen. There hasn't been a need to rush Woo back with how well rookie Emerson Hancock has pitched the last several weeks. Woo could be activated to make his 2024 debut next weekend against the Oakland Athletics. The M's don't want to use a six-man rotation and would prefer to keep Hancock stretched out in Triple-A.
