I have a little inside info that I heard yesterday which may or may not be common knowledge right now - They are going to let the swelling go down and begin the rehab process. They are not going to shut him down until he's had the opportunity to do some rehab. They want him available for the playoffs.

Let's hope it works out like this.

Rizzo is on MLB Now and he basically just said the same thing.

Doesn't sound too serious - better than surgery or an operation

My understanding is his MRI results got sent to the late Dr. Yocum's group in LA. Idea was that if he didn't see a need to examine Stras in person, they wouldn't fly him all the way out. Jorge might have more after Dusty speaks to the media today in Atlanta.

"4 points" sounds like it's on Reddit. Lemme look.

First they don't do an MRI even though he has to go on the DL with elbow pain, and then they don't want to spring for a plane ticket for him to go the see the doctor? Are they kidding us?

They spent so much on the contract they don't want to blow any more, cutting their losses.

Nothing they're gonna be able to see from the exterior view of his arm that they're not gonna see on an MRI.

Ain't technology grand?

Jorge Castillo ‏@jorgeccastillo
Strasburg threw for about 5 minutes. Slowly stretched out the distance. He fist bumped the trainer so I'm assuming it went well.

Strasburg is throwing on flat ground again. Lightly, and not from very far, but throwing.

Good news I guess.
