Skaggs' throwing program has been slowed recently by a shoulder issue, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Reports out of Arizona earlier this month were encouraging, but Skaggs has hit another roadblock on his way back from Tommy John surgery. Skaggs also battled biceps tendinitis and neck tightness within the past couple months. Manager Mike Scioscia said he does not believe this latest setback is serious, but it will delay a minor league rehab assignment indefinitely.
