Aaron Civale - Page 15 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Struggles in loss Civale (2-2) allowed two runs on five hits and four walks while striking out seven over 3.2 innings, taking the loss Wednesday versus the Padres.

Impact Civale gave up solo home runs to Fernando Tatis and Manny Machado. While the seven strikeouts were a season high, Civale's four walks were also his most in five starts, and he needed 95 pitches (52 strikes) to get through the short outing. The right-hander has generally been solid this season, though he's completed six innings just once. He's at a 2.67 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 22:10 K:BB over 27 innings through five starts. Civale is lined up for a favorable home start versus the Athletics next week.

Impact Civale has pitched well since coming back from the IL, giving up just two runs over his last 9.2 innings. The right-hander has also kept hitters in the ballpark, giving up just one home run across four starts thus far. The veteran is tentatively slated to face the Padres on the road in his next appearance.

JUNE 3, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Turns in scoreless outing Civale allowed four hits and two walks over five shutout frames during Friday's loss to Minnesota. He struck out four and did not factor in the decision.

Impact Civale returned from the injured list and made his first start since April 7. He worked around danger multiple times and turned in his second scoreless outing of the season. His velocity was up across the board compared to his first two starts, including his fastball which averaged 92.5 mph. Civale will carry a 2.04 ERA into his next outing, which is lined up to be at home against the Red Sox next week.

Back from injured list The Guardians activated Civale (oblique) from the 15-day injured list Friday, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.

Impact A left oblique strain forced Civale to the injured list April 10, but the 27-year-old righty is now ready to return after making three rehab starts in Triple-A. Civale recorded a 4.91 ERA and 1.55 WHIP through 11 innings during his rehab assignment, so there could still be some rust to knock off, but his 16:4 K:BB ratio offers reason for optimism. Cal Quantrill (shoulder) was placed on the 15-day IL to make room for Civale on the active roster.

Aaron Civale To Make Return To Mound For The Guardians Aaron Civale will start for the Cleveland Guardians on Friday against the Minnesota Twins.

MAY 31, 2023 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Starting Friday Civale (oblique) will start Friday against the Twins, Joe Noga of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Civale has been out since early April with a left oblique strain but is now ready to return to the Guardians' rotation. The 27-year-old righty looked sharp in his two starts prior to injury, but he allowed six earned runs across 11 innings during his three rehab appearances, so there could still be some rust to knock off.

Guardians pitcher will return from injured list Friday; rookie starter heading to bullpen Aaron Civale will return from a strained oblique muscle injury and pitch at Minnesota.

MAY 30, 2023 • CLEVELAND.COM

Records seven Ks in rehab start Civale (oblique) permitted four earned runs on six hits and three walks and struck out seven over 4.2 innings in his rehab start for Triple-A Columbus on Sunday.

Impact In what was the third and perhaps final start of his minor-league rehab assignment, Civale tossed 88 pitches (54 strikes) while working into the fifth inning. Though Civale wasn't as efficient as he had been over his prior two rehab outings, his ability to approach 90 pitches suggests he's ready to return from the 15-day injured list, perhaps as soon as Friday in Minnesota. The Guardians will likely clear a spot in the rotation for Civale by optioning Hunter Gaddis to Triple-A, but the team will have a tougher decision to make once Triston McKenzie (shoulder) comes off the 60-day IL as soon as Sunday or early next week. Young hurlers Logan Allen and Tanner Bibee have both made strong cases for permanent starting roles, and the Guardians could have to expand to a six-man rotation to make room for both pitchers as well as Civale and McKenzie.

MAY 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Getting another rehab start Civale (oblique) is slated to make his third rehab start for Triple-A Columbus on Sunday, Ryan Lewis of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Impact Even though Civale was able to get stretched out to 69 pitches in his latest rehab start Tuesday, the Guardians want to have him make one more tune-up outing in the minors before bringing him back from the 15-day injured list, where he's resided since April 10. With Triston McKenzie (shoulder) potentially making his final rehab start Tuesday, the Guardians will soon have some tough decisions to make with the rotation. Hunter Gaddis -- who is starting Sunday versus St. Louis -- will almost certainly lose his spot once either Civale or McKenzie is activated, but unless the Guardians move to a six-man rotation, one of the two high-performing rookie starters -- Tanner Bibee or Logan Allen -- could lose his spot to make room for the two veterans. Assuming Civale navigates his upcoming minor-league outing smoothly, he could be cleared to join the big-league rotation as soon as Friday in Minnesota.

Triston McKenzie, Aaron Civale nearing return from injured list — now what? The Guardians will be shuffling the same pitching staff that has kept them afloat while the offense scuffles.

MAY 28, 2023 • BEACONJOURNAL.COM

Strikes out five in rehab start Civale (oblique) made his second rehab start Tuesday with Triple-A Columbus, covering 3.1 innings and striking out five while allowing two runs on five hits and one walk.

Impact While Civale recorded only one more out than he did in his first rehab start last Thursday, the right-hander pushed his pitch count up from 34 to 69. Though Civale likely needs one more outing before he'll be ready to handle a normal starter's workload, the Guardians could still bring him back from the 15-day injured list for his next start, even if he's on somewhat of a limited pitch count. Civale could be activated as soon as Sunday, when he would step into the rotation spot occupied by Hunter Gaddis for the series finale with St. Louis.

What happens to Guardians' rotation when Aaron Civale and Triston McKenzie return? Triston McKenzie and Aaron Civale each go three scoreless innings for Class AAA Columbus in their first rehab starts.

MAY 21, 2023 • CLEVELAND.COM

Sharp in rehab outing Civale (oblique) threw three scoreless innings while allowing two hits and no walks with four strikeouts in a rehab outing with Triple-A Columbus on Thursday.

Impact Civale made his first rehab appearance and threw 34 pitches. Though he was sharp, his limited pitch count likely means that he'll need another outing or two before being activated. Civale has been sidelined since April 7 with the injury and will immediately slot back into the Guardians' rotation when healthy.

MAY 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Pitches sim game Civale (oblique) was scheduled for a simulated game Saturday.

Impact The Guardians haven't provided an update on Civale's status since he threw a live bullpen session May 9 at the team's spring training complex. Assuming the sim game went well, he could soon be cleared for a rehab assignment some time this week. Since he's been out for over a month, there's a strong chance he could need multiple rehab starts.

MAY 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ready for live work Guardians president of baseball operations Chris Antonetti said that Civale (oblique) will throw a live batting practice session at the organization's facility in Arizona on Tuesda...

Impact If Civale's injured left oblique responds well to the live throwing session, Antonetti noted that the right-hander could be cleared for a simulated game at extended spring training by the end of next weekend. Civale has been on the shelf for just under a month with the injury, so he may need at least two rehab outings to get fully stretched back out for starting duty before the Guardians bring him back from the 15-day injured list. He appears to be tracking toward a return from the IL in late May or early June.

Aaron Civale heading to Arizona for next step in rehab: Guardians injury report Aaron Civale is joining Triston McKenzie as the two Guardians pitchers rehab their injuries in Arizona.

MAY 7, 2023 • CLEVELAND.COM

Tosses bullpen session Civale (oblique) completed a bullpen session Wednesday, MLB.com reports.

Impact The side session marked the first time that Civale has taken part in mound work since he suffered a left oblique strain in his April 7 start against the Mariners. The Guardians noted that Civale felt well physically coming out of the session, and he'll be re-evaluated Friday before the team determines his next steps. Though he's now nearly a month removed from suffering the injury, Civale is without a clear timeline for a return, though Mandy Bell of MLB.com notes that Civale is behind fellow starting pitcher Triston McKenzie (shoulder) in their respective rehab programs. McKenzie isn't eligible to come off the IL until May 29, so Civale may not be track toward a return in early June.
