That's awesome news!

Orioles, take your time, but get him back healthy and dealing. I expect NOTHING this year, but maybe he can squeeze in a September call up. I'd be

thrilled with that. Anything else would be wishful thinking.

Excellent news.Glad to hear.

Thanks for the encouraging news. I did need to read something positive after yesterday's 12-6 walkathon loss to the Jays.

I dont think there is any way he could come up before then anyways. Doesnt he have about 2 weeks left of rest, putting him at mid June. Then if you rehabbed for a month you are looking mid July. Some stretching out in the minors and regaining strength, September call up is ambitious and best case.

It really depends on how he's feeling. That would be a reasonable time table for a serious sprain, broken finger, moderate to severe hamstring strain, or minor tear. This injury might not be as serious as any of those because there was no real structural damage. If he's 100% structurally and feeling no pain, he could be back much sooner. All depends on how he feels and how his arm responds after throwing at full strength.

There's still plenty of time for Bundy to accomplish what he needs to accomplish this season and get a September call up. And if he earns that, there will be no concerns at all about him reaching an innings limit. So, the O's can afford to be as careful as they need to be.

[Roll Tide]

Great new have to say I'm real surprised

[LayzieDES]

After seeing some of his previous training sessions, maybe this body rest & an augmented work out routine is all he needs to heal up and return to form.

It was all a ploy to keep his innings low and pitch deep into the playoffs

To say there is no structural damage is probably incorrect. The MRI showed no damage to the UCL and he was diagnosed with a wrist flexor strain. This diagnosis implies the muscle belly at the least suffered some damage. Muscles because they have a blood supply are capable of healing themselves if it is truly just a strain. Ligaments do not have a blood supply. That is why they need surgery. If the pain returns this year there is a good chance of ligament damage in addition to the muscle.

My honest opinion is that he worked out too intense with not enough of a break this off-season and then suffered a Repetitive use injury. Hopefully with this break he should return to form. We will know soon.

Nice first steps.

[birdcrazy]

Anyone read this kind of stuff and laugh when they make it like it is a big step. He threw a ball from 60 feet twenty five times. I would sure hope he had no issues.
