June 20, 2025 7:25 PM : Manager Dave Roberts said Friday that Sasaki (shoulder) has restarted his throwing program by playing catch from 60-to-90 feet, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Sasaki paused his throwing program last week due to feeling uncomfortable ramping up to full intensity, but he'll now give it another shot after sitting down for a few days. The 23-year-old righty will likely remain without a defined return timeline until he begins throwing off a mound or facing hitters, but he's guaranteed to be out through the All-Star break after moving to the 60-day IL on Friday.
