Once the right-hander recovers from the injection and his symptoms fade, he will be able to restart his throwing progression, likely pushing back his return to late July/early August. Shoemaker will be subject to a few rehab appearances prior to his return to the big leagues, with a clear timetable coming after he becomes able to start throwing again.","date":"Fri Jul 7"},"fullName":"Matt Shoemaker","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Shoemaker was on the verge of a major breakthrough last season, before a fractured skull resulting from his being struck by a Kyle Seager line drive prematurely ended his year on Sept. 4. Following his May 11 recall, Shoemaker had posted eight wins, 14 quality starts, a 3.10 ERA and 1.13 WHIP in 22 turns, those the result of increasing reliance upon his splitter. He also showed far greater control during that time span -- his walk rate was 3.5 percent -- things that could translate into a top-40 fantasy starter season in 2017, health willing. At the onset of spring training, all reports were positive regarding his health, so don't forget him in the mid-to-late rounds.","seasonId":2017,"date":"Tue Feb 28"},"positionRank":70}
