Soroka (Achilles/knee) is an unlikely option to return until at least September, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
The right-hander has yet to begin a rehab assignment as he continues a lengthy recovery process that last saw him pitch in a big-league game August 2020, and Atlanta manager Brian Snitker said Friday that he doesn't start factoring a player's return into his roster plans until they get deeper into their assignments. That suggests Soroka won't be back until at least September, as he will certainly need a significant rehab assignment following multiple Achilles tendon tears.
