Eury Perez Could Begin Throwing Program Soon
2 months agoMiami Marlins right-hander Eury Perez (elbow), who is working on total-body strengthening after suffering a UCL tear in his right arm, will be evaluated for a throwing program in the coming weeks. Perez started the 2024 season on the injured list and had Tommy John surgery on April 8 after experiencing tightness in his right arm during his bullpen session on April 2. He was moved to the 60-day IL on April 4 and is obviously missing the entire season. Even if the 21-year-old's rehab this winter goes off without a hitch, fantasy managers shouldn't be expecting him to be ready for the start of the 2025 campaign. The Dominican was extremely impressive in his MLB debut last year, though, posting a 3.15 ERA (4.11 FIP) and 1.13 WHIP with 108 punchouts in 91 1/3 innings over 19 starts. When he returns in 2025, expect the Fish to carefully monitor his workload.
