It has felt like since the offseason that the only updates they're getting on their talented arms are injuries. Trey Yesavage is working his way back, though. He's getting closer.

The young right-hander made a rehab start down at Dunedin on Thursday, and it wasn't all great. He went 2. 2 innings, allowing four runs while striking out six and walking just one.

The four runs all came in the first inning as his opponent racked up a bunch of singles in a row. Yesavage threw 52 pitches, 34 of them for strikes. Based on the pitch count, it seems he'd have a couple rehab starts still to go.
