Reese Olson Dealing With Mild Shoulder Injury
4 months agoDetroit Tigers right-hander Reese Olson's shoulder injury appears to be mild after testing, according to manager A.J. Hinch. However, there's still no timetable for how long Olson is expected to be on the 15-day injured list. A right-shoulder strain caused the 24-year-old to be removed from his last outing on Saturday against the Toronto Blue Jays, and he landed on the IL the following day. This is good news for Olson, but it remains to be seen if he'll miss the minimum 15 days. The former 13th-round pick of the Milwaukee Brewers in 2018 has looked better in his sophomore campaign, posting a 3.23 ERA (3.11 FIP) and 1.18 WHIP despite a reduced 21.7% strikeout rate in 103 innings pitched over his 19 starts for the Tigers. Olson deserves to be stashed in deep-mixed leagues, especially if he could return on the first day he's eligible to be reinstated from the IL.
