Tristan Beck Set For Bullpen Session On Monday
4 months agoSan Francisco Giants right-hander Tristan Beck (arm) continues his throwing progress in San Francisco and was scheduled to throw another bullpen session on Monday. The 27-year-old felt his hand go cold after throwing some bullpen sessions early in spring training, prompting the Giants to send him back to San Fran to be evaluated by team doctors on Feb. 27. A vascular specialist at Stanford helped determine Beck was dealing with an aneurysm -- an abnormal bulge or ballooning in the wall of a blood vessel. Beck was moved to the 60-day injured list on March 3 and had surgery at Stanford the next day. Although he's making progress, Beck probably won't be an option to return to the big leagues for at least another couple of weeks, and when he does return, he'll likely be ticketed for a long-relief role with the Giants' starting rotation getting healthier in the second half.
