Emmet Sheehan's fastball velocity has declined, raising concerns about his performance and health after Tommy John surgery.
Coming into the year, he had actually done well in Double-A at the end of 2024, with a strikeout rate approaching a third of batters faced, and a walk rate just barely above 10 percent. The assumption was probably something like a nice, long look in Spring Training, and then Triple-A to start the year before getting called up after a few months.
