Luke Gregerson said Tuesday that his ailing right shoulder has felt “tremendously better” on his rehab assignment.
“Last year, I would have a hard time bouncing back from an outing no matter how many pitches I threw,” Gregerson said. “Right now, it seems to be–knock on wood, cross my fingers, I haven’t been getting sore.” Gregerson’s results have been good, too, as he’s allowed just one run with a 7/0 K/BB ratio over eight innings. He’s headed to Double-A Springfield for some less structured appearances and is poised to be activated soon.
