Matt Brash Will Throw BP Session, Gregory Santos Throws From 75 Feet
7 months agoSeattle Mariners GM Justin Hollander gave updates on several injured players. Relief pitcher Matt Brash (elbow) was shut down early in spring training with elbow inflammation. Hollander reports that Brash was able to throw live batting practice this week and that he will throw another in the next day or two. The hope is that Brash will be ready to head out on rehab assignment in the coming week when Seattle heads out on their next road trip this coming Wednesday after they finish the series with the Cincinnati Reds. Another high-leverage arm, Gregory Santos (lat), is playing catch from 75 feet out right now. He's a little behind Brash at this point, according to Hollander. The next progression is to throw at 105 feet in the next week and then progress to pitching off a mound after that. Santos has been out all season with a lat strain. At this time, Ryne Stanek and Andres Munoz continue to lead the Mariners' bullpen.
