Neil Ramirez

[ctcf]

He threw a bullpen session today in AZ. Muskat has him at a few weeks out.

The Cub Reporter[/url]"]Prior to the Cactus League EXST game on Field #6, RHPs Neil Ramirez (on the Cubs MLB 15-day DL with right shoulder inflammation), Santiago Rodriguez, and Pedro Araujo pitched in a two-inning "sim" game on Field #4. Rodriguez threw two innings (30 pitches) and Araujo and Ramirez each threw one inning (15 pitches a piece). Ramirez looked good, with no distress indicated by his body language or visible on his face during the course of the outing.

 

LaStella is also down in Arizona and appears close to going on a rehab assignment based on his play the last couple of days.

Would be nice to have any sort of velo report out of that since it seemed like he was a few ticks low when he got hurt. Oh well. We'll find out soon enough.

The good news, though, is that he is throwing off of the mound, and according to the Sun-Times, Ramirez will throw today for Cubs pitching coach Chris Bosio as the team is headed to Phoenix for a weekend series against the Diamondbacks. The Sun-Times report, which digs into the bullpen as a whole, describes Ramirez as “making strong progress.”

 

Here’s hoping, then, that throwing for Bosio is simply about getting a final look before Ramirez either throws in an Extended Spring Training game, and/or (soon thereafter) heads out on a rehab assignment.

Joe Maddon says Neil Ramirez (shoulder) rehab is "Status quo. Nothing awful, nothing a lot better, pretty much still in that limbo state.”

If the bullpen somehow morphs into something not terrible for a sustained period of time I just may turn inside out. It looked shockingly competent today.

I keep forgetting that La Stella exists... if he actually does.
