Injury: Strained right oblique
Expected return: Mid- to late April
Status: Manaea was shut down in late February and will miss Opening Day. He began throwing the week of March 10 and is in the midst of a full, Spring Training-style progression, which should take the better part of six weeks. (updated March 24) More >>

Injury: High-grade right lat strain
Expected return: Late May or June
