Lugo (elbow) is expected to return from the injured list next Monday or Tuesday, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lugo hit the 60-day injured list at the start of the year after undergoing surgery to remove a loose body from his right elbow in mid-February. He's already made a pair of rehab appearances, throwing two scoreless innings, and he'll likely make two or three more this week before returning to the active roster.

Lugo (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Lugo has been on the injured list since the start of the season. He was already tracking toward a late-May return, so his shift to the 60-day IL doesn't necessarily mean that he's experienced a setback. The right-hander will now be out until at least early June, and his removal from the 40-man roster will make room for outfielder Johneshwy Fargas, whose contract was selected in a corresponding move. Lugo will begin a rehab assignment with Low-A St. Lucie on Tuesday, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.

Lugo (elbow) is expected to begin a rehab assignment in approximately a week, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lugo underwent surgery in mid-February to remove a loose body from his right elbow. He'd previously been expected back in mid-May, though it now looks as though a late-May return is more likely. Exactly when that happens will depend in part on how his rehab outings go.

Lugo (elbow) is expected to return to the roster at the end of May, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lugo is still working his way back from elbow surgery, a procedure he underwent back in mid-February. Previous reports indicated he could be back in mid-May, but it looks as though he's slightly behind that schedule.

Lugo remains on schedule in his recovery from elbow surgery and has been throwing off flat ground since the final week of March, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lugo was originally expected to return sometime around mid-May when he underwent the procedure to remove a loose body from his right elbow in mid-February. While he's yet to advance to mound work, he appears to still be on that timeline.

Lugo (elbow) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lugo underwent surgery in February to remove a loose body from his right elbow and hasn't yet resumed throwing. Although the right-hander is responding well to treatment, it's not yet clear when he could return to game action. Once Lugo is healthy, he should serve as a setup man behind Edwin Diaz.

Lugo (elbow) has yet to resume throwing but is responding well to treatment, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lugo isn't behind schedule, as it's been five weeks from the date of his elbow surgery, which was expected to keep him shut down for six weeks. While he seems to be making acceptable progress, he'll have to spend a few weeks building back up once he's cleared to throw, so he'll likely miss a fair portion of April at minimum.

Lugo is feeling good as he recovers from February elbow surgery and doesn't expect to miss too much time, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lugo underwent a procedure to remove a loose body from his right elbow in mid-February. The surgery was expected to keep shut him down for six weeks, so he won't be able to start ramping up until late March. He'll open the year on the injured list and doesn't have a precise return timeline, but he seems optimistic about his progress.

Lugo will undergo surgery Tuesday to remove a loose body from his right elbow, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lugo will be shut down for six weeks before he transitions to a throwing program. He'll miss the start of spring training as a result, and he could be sidelined to begin the regular season as well. Once he's fully healthy, the right-hander could take on a high-leverage relief role for the Mets in 2021.
