MLB Relievers Begin Rehab Assignments After Injuries

Multiple MLB players are starting rehab assignments following recent injuries. Toronto Blue Jays reliever Yimi Garcia, sidelined since late May with a right shoulder impingement, struck out the side in a scoreless inning during his Florida Complex League rehab debut and is expected to return to the major league bullpen soon. Kansas City Royals second baseman Michael Massey, out for two weeks with a sprained left ankle and struggling at the plate this season, will begin his rehab stint with Triple-A Omaha. Los Angeles Dodgers reliever Luis Garcia, who has been out since early June with a right adductor strain, is also set to start his rehab assignment with Single-A Rancho Cucamonga. These rehab assignments mark key steps in each player's recovery as their teams look forward to their returns. The Blue Jays, Royals, and Dodgers are all working to strengthen their rosters as the season progresses.
