Sean Manaea To Start Throwing His Slider Soon
5 years agoOakland Athletics starting pitcher Sean Manaea (shoulder) said Sunday that he will start throwing his slider in his next bullpen session. In addition, he will begin to throw to hitter in live batting practice after the upcoming week. Manaea continues to progress in his rehab from shoulder surgery, but a return is not imminent. The original plan was for Manaea to return at or around the All-Star break, and it appears nothing has changed with that timetable. Fantasy owners in AL-only leagues and some deeper mixed play with plenty of roster flexibility will want to start stashing him away for the final two months of the season.
