Dotel’s Velocity Back, Recovery On Track | MLB News

Pirates reliever Wilber Dotel is making strong strides in his recovery from a right lat strain, throwing live batting practice at 98 mph — a key sign his velocity is back. After a shaky rehab outing in early June, he felt better in his latest session, and is now set for a minor league rehab start this week. Once a standout in his early-season call-up, Dotel’s recent outings were hampered by the injury, but the team is optimistic he’ll return to form and rejoin the big league roster soon.
