Darby has a rehab that is progressing well and will pitch a simu, and the Sith is optimistic about his injury and does not need to be on the injury list

The Padres are expected to return to their rotating role in the toughest part of the schedule. Darby Shuyou, who has been sidelined since spring training with an inflammation of his right elbow, threw a three-game simulation game (48 goals) at the Arizona spring training base on Thursday to take a key step towards a comeback. Coach Mike Shildt said on Friday: "There is no specific timetable, but he is getting as close as he can to return. "

Given Darby's 200 wins and 3,000 strikeouts in the major leagues and the Nippon, Hilt revealed that he could be allowed to move into the rotation quickly, and that he may initially limit the number of balls he can use (65 goals are expected to start and gradually increase to 80 goals). The team will have a detailed rehabilitation plan in place after their next bullpen practice, and if all goes well, the Japanese is expected to return at the end of May.

Starting May 30, the Padres will kick off a 27-day, 26-battle Devils schedule featuring multiple divisional key series against the Dodgers, Giants, and Rattlesnakes. Darby has been playing a cowpen practice pitch for several weeks since spring training stopped in mid-March, and faced a batter for the first time on Thursday. 'The pace of the ball is excellent and I feel good about myself,' Hilt revealed, 'and the next steps will be agreed tomorrow.' "

According to the team's update, right-handed striker Dylan Cease (Dylan Cease) has a right forearm cramp injury and has made a light pass on Friday. "I've never experienced this, but the examination showed no pain or abnormality," Sith said. Hilt confirmed that he does not need to be on the injury list, and can only adjust according to the normal rotation.
