Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Matt Brash threw a live batting practice session on Wednesday, the first time he's done so since having an internal brace procedure on his elbow last May. The hitters were instructed not to swing in this particular session, but Brash was pleased with how it went, with the fastball sitting mostly in the mid-90s and the breaking stuff showing good spin. The next step will probably be to throw a real batting practice session with hitters trying to make contact, but the righty is not expected to be ready by Opening Day, rather, it will be closer to the May-June timeframe. Brash last pitched in the majors in 2023, recording a 3.06 ERA, 1.33 WHIP, and 107 strikeouts over 70 2/3 innings pitched while logging four saves and 24 holds. Redraft managers who may be in need of strikeouts will want to monitor his return, although some command issues yield a high WHIP; otherwise, he'd be valuable in AL-only leagues and those that reward for holds.--Jarod Rupp - RotoBaller

The Seattle Times' Adam Jude reports that Seattle Mariners right-handed reliever Matt Brash (elbow) was expected to make his Cactus League debut on Monday against the San Diego Padres in the spring training finale. Better late than never, right? Brash had an internal-brace procedure on his right arm in May of last year and missed the entire 2024 season, which is why he was delayed at spring training this year. The 26-year-old will obviously open the start of the 2025 campaign on the injured list, but barring a setback as he continues to rehab, Brash could make his season debut in May. Before his injury last year, Brash was a very effective high-leverage reliever in Seattle, especially in 2023. That year, he lead the league in appearances (78) and posted a 3.06 ERA, a 1.33 WHIP, his first four career saves, 107 K's and 29 walks in 70 2/3 frames. He could be a sneaky waiver-wire pickup in holds leagues later this year. UPDATE: Brash walked one and struck out two in just two-thirds of an inning on Monday in his spring debut.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

According to Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times, Mariners relief pitcher Matt Brash (elbow) is scheduled to throw a bullpen on Saturday. Brash has not returned to the mound since undergoing an internal brace procedure last May. He was unable to pitch at all during the 2024 campaign. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor the 26-year-old's status as he is not expected to be ready for the start of the regular season. During the 2023 campaign, Brash tallied 25 holds, operating as the setup man for Andres Munoz. Across 70 2/3 innings, the hard-throwing right-hander posted a 3.06 ERA and a 1.33 WHIP. He tallied an impressive 107 punchouts (34.7 percent strikeout rate) and generated a stellar 4.8 percent barrel rate. When Brash returns, he should be viewed as a top option in holds leagues as he will likely return to his eighth-inning high-leverage role.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

According to Shannon Drayer of SeattleSports.com, Mariners relief pitcher Matt Brash (elbow) is targeting to return during the third week of April. However, Brash is supposed to be ready for spring training. The 26-year-old underwent Tommy John surgery last May but is not expected to miss much of the 2024 season. While he will likely open the season on the injured list, fantasy managers should monitor his progress during spring training. In 2023, Brash posted a 3.06 ERA with a 1.33 WHIP. He struck out 107 batters across 70 2/3 innings of work. He generated a stellar 38.3 percent whiff rate and a strong 34.3 percent hard-hit rate. He operated primarily as the setup man for Andres Munoz as he tallied 25 holds. When healthy, fantasy managers should expect him to return to that role, and he is a strong target for leagues that score holds, given his elite strikeout upside.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

Seattle Mariners right-hander Matt Brash (elbow) had an internal-brace procedure in early May, but he has been working out at the team's spring training facility in Arizona this fall and is ahead of schedule in his rehab from elbow surgery. As a result, the Mariners are optimistic that Brash could return to their bullpen by the end of April. Seattle's bullpen was hampered by injuries all year in 2024, so the return of Brash to a key late-inning role as a setup man would be excellent news for the M's. The 26-year-old Canadian hurler was excellent in his second major-league season in Seattle in 2023, going 9-4 with a 3.06 ERA (2.26 FIP), a 1.33 WHIP, his first four career saves, 107 strikeouts and 29 walks in 70 2/3 innings over a league-high 78 appearance out of the bullpen.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
