Jimmy Nelson Has Elbow Soreness
6 years agoMilwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jimmy Nelson reported some elbow soreness after pitching into the fourth inning in a minor league game on Thursday, and he was to be examined by the team's head physician on Friday. Manager Craig Counsell expressed optimism that Nelson's injury wasn't serious. The team is hoping Nelson is just experiencing soreness common for starting pitchers as they build up stamina for the regular season. The Brewers don't think any additional testing will be necessary. Nelson missed all of last year after having right shoulder surgery and will begin 2019 in the minor leagues. If healthy, though, he could have a big impact in the starting rotation in Milwaukee and could become relevant again in mixed leagues.
