No Timetable For Rehab Assignment For Freddy Tarnok
6 months agoOakland Athletics right-hander Freddy Tarnok (hip) reported to the team's minor-league complex in Arizona on April 29. He was scheduled to throw a bullpen session on April 30 and a live batting practice session last Thursday. Tarnok was moved to the 60-day injured list on Friday and he doesn't have a current timetable to start a minor-league rehab assignment. The 25-year-old is recovering from right-hip inflammation that he first experienced in spring training and won't be able to return until at least late May. The A's aren't going to rush him along once he does start a rehab assignment on the farm. In just five appearances (one start) for the A's last year, Tarnok had a 4.91 ERA and 1.50 WHIP with 11 walks and 14 strikeouts in 14 2/3 innings. Tarnok has shown the ability to miss bats, but he's going to need to stay healthy to give himself a chance at a role.
