Dillon Tate Expected To Return In May
2 years agoBaltimore Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that relief pitcher Dillon Tate (forearm) is still expected to return at some point in May. Meanwhile, fellow reliever Mychal Givens (knee) will throw another side session on Thursday and is getting close to a minor-league rehab assignment. Tate was diagnosed with a flexor strain in his right forearm in February but has been throwing of late. The 28-year-old tossed a career-high 73 2/3 innings for the Orioles last year and had five saves and 16 holds, so he should be valuable in holds leagues once he's back in Baltimore's bullpen. Tate makes up for his lack of strikeouts with heavy ground-ball tendencies.
