Gunnar Hoglund - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Starts throwing progression Hoglund (knee/back) has begun a throwing progression, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Impact Hoglund missed all of spring training and the start of the season due to a right knee sprain and a back injury. He's starting his throwing program from scratch, so it's going to take the right-hander a long time before he's cleared to pitch in games.

Receives PRP injection Hoglund received a PRP injection for his back this past Thursday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Impact Hoglund sustained both a right knee sprain and a lumbar spine strain during spring training, but it is the latter injury that has caused the most issues for the 26-year-old right-hander. He was transferred to the 60-day IL on April 7, and while the PRP injection should help with his recovery, the Athletics have not provided a clear timeline for Hoglund's return.

Shifted to 60-day injured list The Athletics transferred Hoglund (back) to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

Impact The transaction frees a spot on the 40-man roster for the addition of Joel Kuhnel. Hoglund is recovering from a lumbar spine strain and it's unclear how far along he is in his rehab. He is now ineligible to return before late May.

Dealing with lumbar spine strain The Athletics announced Thursday that Hoglund has been diagnosed with a lumbar spine strain.

Impact The back injury is apparently the bigger issue for Hoglund, who also missed time during spring training with a knee issue. The right-hander was officially placed on the 15-day injured list this week and will miss at least the first couple weeks of the season. Hoglund made his MLB debut last season, registering a 6.40 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 23:11 K:BB across 32.1 innings.

Lands on injured list Hoglund was placed on the 15-day injured list Monday due to a sprained right knee.

Impact It's been reported that Hoglund has been dealing with both a knee and back injury during camp, but it's the knee injury that's landed him on the IL to begin the 2026 campaign. The club has yet to reveal a timetable for his return, but he'll miss at least the first week or so of the regular season if not more while on the mend.

Now dealing with back injury Hoglund (knee) is now dealing with a back injury that will delay his start to the season, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Impact Hoglund first suffered a right knee sprain early on in camp, but now it appears the back issue is the bigger concern. He has yet to make a Cactus League appearance and will not get into a game before camp breaks. It's unclear how long the back injury might shelve Hoglund, but he'll be ticketed for Triple-A Las Vegas once he's healthy.

MARCH 12 • ROTOWIRE

Diagnosed with sprained knee Hoglund was diagnosed with a sprained right knee Saturday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Impact Hoglund's knee began bothering him near the beginning of spring training, and a visit to the doctor confirmed that he'd suffered a sprain. He has since started up a throwing program, but his status for Opening Day remains unclear.

Battling knee injury Hoglund (hip) is scheduled to see a doctor about a knee issue that appeared toward the beginning of camp, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Impact Hoglund made just six starts with the A's last season before undergoing season-ending hip surgery in June. He opened spring camp with the green light to work off a mound, but his throwing program will presumably be put on hold until the team has more information regarding his newest injury.
