Tillman (shoulder) could make his 2017 debut on May 2 if he continues to progress well in his rehab, Peter Schmuck of the Baltimore Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

The staff ace has been battling a shoulder issue throughout the offseason but is beginning to work his way back towards getting back on a mound. The Orioles are hoping to have Tillman appear in a minor league game by April 11 and have him stretch out over the following weeks. Still, until Tillman gets into a game without incident, the May 2 target date is tentative at best.
