3 years agoPittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Steven Brault (back) is scheduled to throw a 30-pitch side session on Thursday, according to Mike Persak. Brault has yet to appear in a game this season after suffering a moderate lat strain during Spring Training. He was expected to originally miss 4-10 weeks with this injury, but it's looking now like his return might not be until closer to the All-Star break. Brault was coming off the best season of his career in 2020, where he went 1-3 with a 3.38 ERA and 21.3 percent strikeout rate over 42 2/3 innings of work. When he returns, he could be worth taking a look at — minimally as a solid streaming option.--Michael Grennell - RotoBaller
