April 24, 2025 12:33 AM : McCullers (forearm) will make a rehab start with Double-A Corpus Christi on Saturday, MLB.com reports.
Analysis: McCullers was scratched from a scheduled rehab outing last week due to a stomach bug, but he's since thrown a 33-pitch bullpen session. He was able to work four innings in a rehab outing April 12, so he is nearing a traditional starter's workload and potential activation from the injured list.
