John Danks (shoulder) underwent an MRI on Monday. White Sox manager Robin Ventura said Sunday that there was "no bad news" after Danks had his shoulder examined by Dr. Lewis Yocum over the weekend, but MRI results should provide more clarity on the situation. The southpaw hasn't pitched for nearly a month due to left shoulder soreness.

White Sox manager Robin Ventura said he received "no bad news" from John Danks' visit with Dr. Lewis Yocum. There was no further elaboration on the results, or a potential timetable given for Danks' return, but it's encouraging to know there wasn't any structural damage in the lefty's throwing shoulder. Danks will likely need another one or two rehab starts before returning and could struggle to make it back before the end of June.

John Danks (shoulder) is unlikely to rejoin the White Sox rotation Monday. Danks experienced more soreness than expected while playing catch Thursday, and he's not sure if he'll be able to throw a bullpen session Friday. If he's unable to do so, his return will be backed up indefinitely. "Hopefully I feel well enough to throw a side (Friday). But I obviously didn't expect to feel quite this sore,'' he said. "I've never had this, so I didn't know what to expect. I was hoping to bounce back a little better than I have. If I can't throw a side, then who knows?''

John Danks acknowledged Thursday that he's still feeling some pain in his left shoulder. Danks allowed three runs (one earned) over four innings Tuesday in a rehab start with Triple-A Charlotte.

We should know more on his status after he throws a bullpen session Friday, but his return to the White Sox doesn't sound imminent at the moment.
