Tillman (shoulder) said he feels good Friday after receiving a cortisone shot Wednesday, Jon Meoli of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman was expected to debut in this year's Grapefruit League action recently, but he pushed back some bullpen sessions due to possible side effects from antibiotics that caused soreness. "The ones I completed before, I was feeling fine," Tillman said. "I felt completely fine. And then when I went to warm up for that bullpen that didn't happen, I just didn't feel comfortable. If we're sitting here in June and July, I'm probably pitching. But at the same time, we're talking spring training here. It's just not worth it to me." If he continues to feel better, Tillman could be ready for regular-season games early in April, but fantasy owners are wise to bid with caution in mind.
