MASH Report (5/29/15)

• Not a much of movement on the DL over the last couple of days. I submitted this article for publication early on Friday, so any injury news which comes out today will not be contained.

• Jayson Werth had a major setback when it was determined he has two fractures in his wrist. He could be back in August. Or he could miss the rest of the season.

Sprains or strains forced the following players to the DL

• Matt Adams strained his quad and will miss 3-4 months recovering. Basically there is a small chance he will return by the end of the season.

• Michael Morse strained his finger.

• Daniel Nava strained his thumb.

• Collin Cowgill sprained his wrist.

• Scott Atchison sprained his ankle.

Velocity Readings

• Sean Doolittle is back, but there look to be some issues with Pitchf/x classifying his pitches. His 4-seam looks to be down 7 mph at 88 mph, but his 2-seam is at 95 mph. I think he is fine right now and hopefully the pitch classification will get corrected in the future.

• Jason Vargas’s average fastball velocity is fine.

• Manny Parra’s is also fine.
