Tomoyuki Sugano Activated from Injured List for Rockies' Start vs. Reds
The Colorado Rockies have activated pitcher Tomoyuki Sugano from the injured list, with the right-hander slated to start against the Cincinnati Reds. Sugano had been sidelined earlier this month with back issues.
Colorado Rockies pitcher Tomoyuki Sugano is set to return to action on Saturday, taking the mound against the Cincinnati Reds. Sugano had been on the injured list due to back spasms.
The right-hander was placed on the 15-day injured list earlier in June. His absence was attributed to persistent back trouble, compounded by a separate fingernail issue. This marks the first time in his Major League Baseball career that Sugano has been placed on the IL.
Sugano's return provides a boost to the Rockies' pitching staff as they face the Reds, a lineup featuring prominent players like Elly De La Cruz.
Sugano's return is a welcome sight for the Rockies, but his health has been a recurring concern, making his long-term availability a question mark.
