Matt Brash Starting Throwing Program
3 months agoSeattle Mariners right-hander Matt Brash (elbow), who had Tommy John surgery on May 8, joined the team for a homestand that started on Aug. 2 to work with the club's high-performance staff and connect with pitching coach Pete Woodworth and director of pitching strategy Trent Blank. Brash is also at the onset of starting "what is a long throwing program process," according to general manager Justin Hollander. The 26-year-old had the UCL in his right elbow fixed and a brace installed, which has typically allowed patients to start physical therapy sooner. It's why the Mariners are hopeful that he can return in 12 months, potentially as early as June of 2025. Brash wasn't able to get on the mound at all in 2024 after experiencing soreness in his right elbow during his second bullpen during spring training.
