3 years agoChicago White Sox manager Tony La Russa said that relief pitcher Joe Kelly's (biceps) most recent bullpen session had him sitting in the mid-90s without pain or fatigue, and he's close to facing live hitters in Arizona. General manager Rick Hahn previously said the hope was for Kelly to make some rehab appearances in late April. Kelly suffered a strained right biceps while pitching for the Los Angeles Dodgers in the playoffs last year and opened the season on the injured list. But the hard-throwing right-hander is slowly making his way back and should debut for the White Sox sometime in early May, barring any setbacks. The 33-year-old right-hander should have a prominent late-inning role for the White Sox when he's healthy.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
