PT TOMORROW: AL Central—Santana nearing return to the majors
Jul 18 2018
Ervin Santana (RHP, MIN) continued his road to recovery from February surgery on his right middle finger by making another rehab start on Sunday, July 15th, this one his first in Triple-A. He threw 86 pitchers over 5.2 IP while allowing three runs on four hits (including two homers) and one walk and striking out seven. Since restarting his rehab assignment after a setback in late May, Santana has made four starts, compiling a 4.24 ERA with one walk to 17 strikeouts in 17 IP.
