Ferguson threw one scoreless inning in the Dodgers' Cactus League game against the White Sox on Monday, allowing one walk and striking out one.

EDGE Analysis

This was a significant step for Ferguson, who last toed the mound in September of 2020 before undergoing the second Tommy John surgery of his career. The organization is likely to be cautious with the left-hander, so he isn't expected to be ready for regular-season action by Opening Day. However, Ferguson could emerge as a key part of the team's bullpen if he doesn't experience any setbacks.
