|
|
| According to the Palm Beach Post, reliever Scott Proctor is set to resume throwing long toss. He is trying to return to the Marlins after being shut down earlier this spring with elbow discomfort. |
Our View: When healthy, Proctor is a strikeout machine, but until he can control all his pitches and lower last year's dreadful 6.05 ERA and 1.68 WHIP he doesn't command any fantasy respect.

|
|
|
|
| Scott Proctor could serve as a setup man behind closer Matt Lindstrom with the Marlins this season, according to MLB.com. |

Our View: Proctor missed time last season with elbow tendinitis, and he had shoulder surgery in October though he should be ready by spring training. Still, even a healthy Proctor will find it nearly impossible to replace the production the team received from Nelson last season (2.00 ERA, 10.00 K/9).

|
|
|
| The Los Angeles Daily News reports that Scott Proctor will have elbow surgery on Wednesday. He will have a partial tear of his flexor tendon repaired and a bone spur shaved of the back of the elbow. He is expected to be ready for spring training. |

|
| Scott Proctor is making progress in his recovery from right elbow tendinitis, according to the LA Times. He threw 24 pitches in a rehab appearance Saturday for Class-A Inland Empire and reported being sore the next day, but said, "It's a good soreness, though." He gave up three runs in 2/3 of an inning, but his fastball was favorably hitting the 94-96 mph range. |
Our View: The next step in Proctor's recovery will be for him to pitch on back-to-back days, and plans to do that Tuesday and Wednesday. When he returns, he will hold value only in deeper leagues that use middle relievers.

|
| Updating an earlier report, Scott Proctor has an issue with his elbow that has forced him to the DL, according to the Los Angeles Daily News. "Scotty is that guy who figures that even in spite of it, he can go out and get people out,'' manager Joe Torre said. |
Our View: Apparently he may have been hurt for a while. Looking at his numbers, it may have been bothering him since training camp.
|
|
|
|
| Scott Proctor has been placed on the DL with an unspecified injury, according to the Los Angeles Daily News. To take his spot on the roster, the Dodgers will call up relief pitcher Brian Falkenborg while placing Gary Bennett on the 60-day DL meaning that the catcher is out of action until at least July 18th. |
Our View: We will update the injury when we get more information, but the fact is that Proctor has been pitching like he is hurt for most of the year if you take a look at his performance, a performance which has hopefully been on waivers in your league.
