Nola’s Unexpected Setback: What’s Really Behind the Delay in His Ankle Recovery?
The team hoped to get Nola back on the mound for a ‘pen session before one of the games against the Athletics but Nola is still sore. Manager Rob Thomson said in Colorado earlier in the week that Nola was still experiencing tenderness when putting on his shoe.
“No bullpen today. He was still a little sore today. It’s day by day. We’ll see if he’s OK tomorrow,” Thomson said before the second of a three-game series.
Asked if Nola’s recovery was taking longer than he initially expected, Thomson said, “Originally, yeah. I thought by this weekend he’d be throwing a bullpen but he still feels it in there. There’s no sense in pushing it.”
