Guardians' Erik Sabrowski: Moving rehab to Double-A
Rotowire
Sabrowski (elbow) will move his rehab assignment from the rookie-level Arizona Complex League to Double-A Akron this week, SI.com reports.
Sabrowski has been on the shelf all season with left elbow inflammation but may be a few weeks away from making his 2025 debut with the big club. He began his rehab assignment in the ACL on Friday and has been cleared to advance to a higher-level affiliate despite walking three of the five batters he faced in his lone appearance in rookie ball. Sabrowski is projected to work in a middle-relief role for the Guardians once he's activated from the 60-day injured list.
Sabrowski has been on the injured list all season due to left elbow inflammation and was briefly shut down in late April after experiencing increased soreness in his pitching arm. He was cleared to resume throwing earlier this month and has since stepped back on the mound, though it's unclear when Sabrowski might be ready to face hitters. Once the Guardians activate him from the 60-day injured list, Sabrowski projects to fill a middle-relief role.
