Justin Slaten - Page 8 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Might need another outing Boston manager Alex Cora was non-committal Saturday when asked if one rehab outing would be enough to activate Slaten (elbow) from the 15-day injured list, MLB.com reports.

Impact Slaten threw 17 pitches (eight strikes) for Double-A Portland on Friday, giving up a run on one hit and one walk while striking out one over a third of an inning. Cora said Slaten was fine in terms of health but noted the right-hander was out of rhythm. The Red Sox will evaluate him this weekend and decide if Slaten needs another outing.

Begins rehab assignment Slaten (elbow) allowed one run on one hit and one walk while striking out one over a third of an inning for Double-A Portland on Friday.

Set for rehab assignment Slaten (elbow) is expected to begin a rehab assignment Friday, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

Impact Slaten threw a bullpen session Monday and he's now slated to take the final step in his recovery from right elbow inflammation. It's unclear where Slaten will report to for his rehab assignment, but he likely won't require an extensive stay before ultimately returning to the Red Sox bullpen.

Bullpen Monday, rehab stint after Slaten (elbow) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Monday and start a minor-league rehab assignment shortly after, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

Impact Slaten will incorporate an up and down into Monday's bullpen before embarking on what's expected to be a brief rehab assignment. The 26-year-old has been on the shelf since July 12 due to elbow inflammation that wasn't expected to sideline him for more than the minimum 15 days, but his recovery was thrown off schedule by an illness.

Now throwing at 120 feet Slaten (elbow) has been cleared to throw up to 120 feet, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact Slaten has been progressing through a throwing program after landing on the 15-day injured list due to right elbow inflammation July 12. He's yet to gain clearance for mound work but could get approval to do so shortly if all continues to go well in his rehab.

Limited to playing catch Slaten (elbow) remains limited to playing catch from 75 feet out as of Monday, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

Impact Slaten landed on the 15-day injured list July 12 with right elbow inflammation and was believed to be in line for a minimum-length stay on the shelf, but a bout with an illness ended up delaying him from starting up a throwing program. He looks like he'll still need some time to increase his throwing distance off flat ground before the Red Sox clear him for mound work.

Plays catch Saturday Slaten (elbow) played catch Saturday, MLB.com reports.

Impact Slaten came out of the session without incident and will remain on flat ground before getting back to the mound. The team hopes he won't need much of a ramp-up after that. The right-hander has been a key bullpen piece for Boston, which had a couple of relief breakdowns during a three-game sweep by the Dodgers this weekend.

Hits rough patch Slated allowed two runs on two walks and struck out one over two-thirds of an inning in Thursday's 6-5 extra-innings win over Miami.

In his last eight outings, the right-hander has allowed eight runs (seven earned, 5.73 ERA) on nine hits (two home runs) and four walks over 11 innings.

Impact In his second career MLB appearance, Slaten needed just 15 pitches to record seven outs and close out the 5-1 win. Kenley Jansen is dealing with a back issue, so the Red Sox's bullpen is shortened. Slaten likely won't see many save opportunities throughout the year.
