Cody Allen Has Been Throwing
4 years agoTexas Rangers relief pitcher Cody Allen (forearm), who had some minor arm issues this spring before baseball was shut down due to COVID-19, has been feeling good and has been throwing at Globe Life Field during the pandemic. It's unknown if he'll be ready to go if the MLB season kicks off in July, but the right-handed reliever's injury didn't sound too serious to begin with. Jose Leclerc should be the team's primary closer, with Rafael Montero also being a candidate for ninth-inning duties. Allen has plenty of closing experience with 153 career saves, but he posted a 6.26 ERA in 25 games with the Angels last year before being released. He's just hoping to win a bullpen job whenever the season starts, so Allen is off the fantasy radar currently.
