Cole Ragans, the Kansas City Royals' ace, has struggled with injury this season, impacting the team's playoff hopes. Recently, he completed a bullpen session without pain, which is a significant step in his rehabilitation. Manager Matt Quatraro noted that Ragans increased his pitch volume and velocity without issue. Despite ongoing recovery challenges, there is optimism about Ragans' future contributions to the Royals' rotation. The team has adjusted by utilizing other pitchers like Seth Lugo and rookie Noah Cameron while waiting for Ragans' return.
Royals lefty Cole Ragans threw a 20-pitch bullpen today. Increased the volume and velocity 'without any problems,' manager Matt Quatraro said, along with 'no pain, no restrictions in the delivery.' All good things, so Ragans stays on track in his progression.
Ragans' recovery has been a long process with little light at the end of the tunnel. Because of his injuries, the Royals' chances to get to the playoffs are slim to none.
