Reese Olson - Page 9 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Activated ahead of Monday's start The Tigers activated Olson (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Monday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Impact Olson is set to rejoin the rotation Monday versus the Royals after missing nearly two months with a right shoulder strain. The right-hander went just three innings and threw 45 pitches in his last rehab start, so he will be pretty limited Monday from a workload perspective.

Could return Monday Olson (shoulder) could be lined up to be activated from the 15-day injured list to start Monday against the Royals, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Impact It was previously reported that the 25-year-old was trending toward a return early this week in Kansas City, and Casey Mize and Tarik Skubal have been named the probable starters for Tuesday's and Wednesday's contests, respectively. Detroit hasn't officially announced a starter for Monday, but Olson appears primed to make his return after missing nearly two months due to a shoulder strain.

Tigers News: Reese Olson set to rejoin Detroit Tigers in crucial playoff push Reese Olson is on track to return to the Tigers, aiming to bolster their playoff push against the Royals.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2024 • SUNHERALD.COM

Likely returning vs. Royals Olson (shoulder) is trending towards returning early next week in Kansas City, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Impact McCosky hints than an announcement will come Saturday, and given that Tarik Skubal has been confirmed to start Wednesday, that leaves Monday or Tuesday as potential dates for Olson to make his return to the rotation. He struck out five across three scoreless frames in his rehab start Tuesday for Triple-A Toledo.

Impact The right-hander threw 45 pitches across three scoreless innings Tuesday, which is only a minor increase from the 39 pitches and two innings he tossed during his first rehab outing Sept. 5. Hinch mentioned the possibility of a third rehab start, but the next steps in Olson's rehab won't be determined until he's checked out back with the big club.

Impact This marked Olson's first game activity since landing on the injured list July 21 and he ramped up to 39 pitches, 24 of which went for strikes. He averaged 94 mph on his fastball -- in line with his norms for the season -- and threw all of his pitches. Olson will still require a couple more rehab assignments, but a return in late September appears realistic.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

To begin rehab assignment Olson (shoulder) is beginning a rehab assignment Thursday with Triple-A Toledo, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact Olson has been sidelined since July 20 with a right shoulder strain. He most recently threw a 20-pitch live batting practice session and should increase his workload Thursday. Olson is expected to require multiple rehab starts before being activated.

Facing hitters Saturday Olson (shoulder) will throw live batting practice Saturday, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

Impact Olson was cleared for mound work Aug. 21 and has now advanced to facing live hitters. The right-hander will likely require a minor-league rehab stint, though it's unclear if he'll have enough time to get fully stretched out and rejoin the rotation.

AUGUST 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Another bullpen coming Olson is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Saturday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Impact Olson threw off a mound Wednesday for the first time since being placed on the injured list July 21 due to a right shoulder strain. The 24-year-old is slated for another side session Saturday. He's still expected to be sidelined for multiple weeks, but he seems to be progressing well.

Throwing bullpen Wednesday Olson (shoulder) will throw a bullpen session Wednesday.

Impact Olson has been limited to playing catch off flat ground since he landed on the IL with a shoulder strain in late July, but Wednesday will mark his first time working off of a mound. He'll presumably need to throw several additional bullpen sessions before progressing to live batting practice and eventually a minor-league rehab assignment, but there should still be enough time left in the season for the 25-year-old to return to the Tigers' rotation, barring any setbacks.

AUGUST 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Limited to playing catch The Tigers announced Friday that Olson (shoulder) continues to make progress in his throwing distance and volume off flat ground, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact While the fact that Olson isn't shut down from throwing can be taken as a positive sign, the Tigers haven't offered any indication that he's close to a return from the 15-day injured list after being deactivated July 21 due to a right shoulder strain. With approximately six weeks left in the regular season, Olson will probably need to advance to throwing bullpen sessions and facing hitters in the next two weeks in order to have sufficient time to get stretched back out as a starter. Before landing on the shelf, Olson had been a pleasant surprise for the Tigers and fantasy managers alike through his first 19 starts of the season, logging a 3.23 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 92:31 K:BB across 103 innings.

AUGUST 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Avoids serious shoulder injury Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said Tuesday in an interview on MLB Network Radio that testing has revealed Olson's right shoulder injury to be mild, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

Impact Olson had to be removed from Saturday's outing against the Blue Jays and was subsequently placed on the 15-day injured list with what was referred to as a right shoulder strain. The good news is it appears he's avoided structural damage, although a timetable for the pitcher's return remains unclear.

Hits IL with shoulder strain The Tigers placed Olson on the 15-day injured list Sunday with a right shoulder strain.

Impact Olson's move to the IL comes one day after he was removed from his start in the Tigers' 7-3 win over the Blue Jays due to what the team had classified as right shoulder soreness. Follow-up testing evidently revealed that Olson had suffered a strain, and the diagnosis leaves the 24-year-old with an uncertain timeline for a return from the shelf. Olson's injury now creates two openings in the Detroit rotation, as Casey Mize (hamstring) was placed on the IL earlier this month.

Tigers RHP Reese Olson leaves game against Blue Jays after two innings because of sore shoulder

Detroit Tigers right-hander Reese Olson left his start against the Blue Jays after two innings because of a sore right shoulder

JULY 20, 2024 • Associated Press

Exits early versus Toronto Olson was removed from Saturday's outing against the Blue Jays as a result of right shoulder soreness.

Impact Olson threw two scoreless innings, allowing one hit while walking two batters prior to exiting the contest having thrown 30 total pitches. Considering the soreness is in his throwing shoulder, Olson is an obvious candidate for a potential stint on the injured list, but more information on his status will likely come in the near future.

Logs quality start in win Olson (4-8) earned the win against the Guardians on Wednesday, allowing three runs on six hits and one walk with three strikeouts over six innings.

Impact Olson allowed two runs in the third inning and a solo homer in the fourth but rebounded with two scoreless frames before departing at 95 pitches. The righty has now logged quality starts in four of his past five outings and registered consecutive victories for the first time this season. He will take a 3.30 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 92:29 K:BB into the All-Star break.

Earns win Friday Olson (3-8) allowed two runs (one earned) on three hits over 5.2 innings to earn the win Friday against the Reds. He walked two and struck out eighth.

Impact While Reese's record isn't great, he's actually pitched quite well this season with a 3.22 ERA. The righty has been even better lately, posting a 1.88 ERA with 28 strikeouts across 24 innings in his last four starts. Reese was solid as a rookie last year as well, posting a 3.99 ERA over 21 games (18 starts), so it looks like he firmly belongs at this level. He'll look to keep up his strong recent play in his next scheduled start, which is penciled in for Wednesday against the Guardians.

Pitches well in no-decision Olson allowed two runs on five hits across six innings and did not factor into the decision in Saturday's contest against the Angels. He walked three and struck out nine.

Impact The nine strikeouts are a new season high, though the three walks also matched a season high, as Olson was all over the place Saturday. He still managed a solid outing overall despite missing out on his third win of the year. The righty's 2-8 record isn't fitting of his 3.32 ERA and 1.20 WHIP across 89.1 innings this season. Olson will look for a little better luck and some more run support in his next scheduled start, which is penciled in for Friday against the Reds.
