Wil Crowe Should Return Soon
1 year agoPittsburgh Pirates relief pitcher Wil Crowe (shoulder) began a minor-league rehab assignment with Single-A Bradenton on July 2 and has tossed 3 1/3 scoreless frames since then, allowing two hits while walking one and striking out two in three outings (one start). If he can avoid any setbacks with his right shoulder, he should rejoin Pittsburgh's bullpen shortly after this week's All-Star break. Before going on the injured list, the 28-year-old right-hander had a 4.66 ERA (5.87 FIP), 1.86 WHIP, one save, nine walks and nine strikeouts in 9 2/3 relief innings for the Bucs. When healthy, he will operate as an important setup man before closer David Bednar, making him an option in fantasy leagues that count holds.
