Kevin Shackelford Close To Return
Cincinnati Reds reliever Kevin Shackelford (forearm) has begun throwing and is close to throwing a bullpen session, according to manager Bryan Price. Shackelford was placed on the 10-day disabled list on March 29 after coming down with a forearm strain during spring training. The 28-year-old reliever threw 30 2/3 innings for the Reds in 2017, posting a 4.70 ERA, 38 strikeouts, and three holds. He is expected to pitch in middle relief for the team when he returns.
