Eickhoff (lat, wrist) felt no pain after a bullpen session Saturday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic Philadelphia reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eickhoff incorporated curveballs without any issues, a significant step in his recovery after the pitch had been causing him some numbness in late May. He's yet to pitch in a game this season after suffering a setback while recovering from a lat strain, but he appears to be finally nearing a return. He'll likely need at least a few rehab starts before rejoining the Phillies, and whether or not he heads straight back to the starting rotation when he returns remains unclear.

Eickhoff (lat, wrist) threw 20 fastballs in the bullpen Tuesday and came away without feeling any numbness, NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eickhoff recently suffered a setback while rehabbing from his lat strain which led to him feeling numbness while pitching. Tests ruled out a significant injury and he seems to be doing better after an anti-inflammatory injection in his wrist. He did note that he had previously mostly felt the numbness when throwing curveballs, which he didn't throw Tuesday, so we'll have a better idea of where he is in his recovery after his next bullpen session Saturday.

Eickhoff (lat, wrist) will begin a throwing program Tuesday, Meghan Montemurro of The Athletic Philadelphia reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eickhoff will throw his first bullpen session since suffering a setback in his rehab back in mid-May. He remains without a timetable for his return, though he's trending in the right direction.

Eickhoff (lat, wrist) could throw a bullpen session Thursday, Meghan Montemurro of The Athletic Philadelphia reports.

EDGE Analysis

If that indeed happens and goes off without a hitch, Eickhoff will begin a throwing progression. He received a cortisone shot in his wrist earlier this week and is still working is way back from a lat injury. Eickhoff is without a timetable for his return to game action.

Eickhoff (lat) received a cortisone shot in his right wrist Monday, Meghan Montemurro of The Athletic Philadelphia reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eickhoff appeared to be nearing his season debut in late May before his rehab was put on hold due to a twinge in the tips of his right index and middle fingers. Thoracic Outlet Syndrome was recently ruled out as a cause, but he now appears to be dealing with a wrist issue as well. He's confident that he'll pitch again this season, but the fact that that's even in question is certainly not an encouraging sign. There remains no timetable for his return.

Eickhoff (lat) remains hopeful to pitch again this season after doctors recently concluded that he isn't dealing with Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

It was feared that Eickhoff might have been dealing with the condition after experiencing tingling in the fingers on his pitching hand during a May 20 rehab start with Triple-A Lehigh Valley, but doctors don't believe the 27-year-old's situation is quite as dire. Eickhoff expects to receive a firmer diagnosis on his injury within the next few days, at which point a timetable for his return from the 60-day disabled list could be established. Even if the tingling sensation subsides and Eickhoff is cleared to resume a throwing program, he'll likely need several weeks to ramp up again after having logged only 6.1 innings in affiliated ball this season. It thus appears unlikely that he'll be a rotation option for the Phillies until the second half.

Eickhoff (lat) was transferred to the 60-day disabled list Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

This is simply procedural, as Eickhoff has already been sidelined for 60 days with a lat injury. He's scheduled to visit a thoracic outlet syndrome specialist in the near future, after which a possible timetable for his return will hopefully come into focus. The move opens up a spot on the Phillies' 40-man roster for Mitch Walding, whose contract was purchased in a corresponding roster move.

EDGE Analysis

Eickhoff's rehab was put on hold after the right-hander felt a twinge in his fingers after during his most recent rehab start with Triple-A Lehigh Valley. He's set to undergo some testing in Philadelphia on Thursday before heading to St. Louis to visit with Dr. Robert Thompson in an attempt to learn more about the nerve issues in his fingers. While Eickhoff was able to play catch with no issues Wednesday, he remains without a timetable for his return.

Eickhoff (lat) was shut down after feeling a twinge in the fingertips of his right index and middles fingers, Meghan Montemurro of The Athletic Philadelphia reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eickhoff apparently felt the issue while throwing a curveball during his most recent rehab start with Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Sunday. While specifics regarding the issue remain unclear at this point, it should be noted that the 27-year-old dealt with a similar injury last season and was shut down for the final month of the campaign as a result. Eickhoff's rehab assignment is currently on hold while he is evaluated.

Eickhoff (lat) will make another rehab start Sunday for Triple-A Lehigh Valley, Matt Breen of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eickhoff was shaky his last time out and the Phillies rotation has been on a roll, so the club will have him make another start in the minors before considering a return. Given Zach Eflin's success thus far (0.71 ERA, 0.79 WHIP over 12.2 innings in two starts), there may not be a rotation spot waiting for Eickhoff after this appearance, but expect him to return to the Phillies roster sometime during next weekend's series against the Blue Jays, which begins May 25.
