2023 Fantasy Outlook
Pomeranz had flexor tendon surgery in August 2021 and missed all of last season after experiencing a setback during his rehab process, which yielded just 4.2 innings in the minors before he was shut down. The southpaw has now missed time during each of the past five seasons, including lengthy absences in three of those five. Now 34, Pomeranz enters his 13th season in the majors as a huge risk for fantasy purposes, but has pitched well when healthy. We're assuming he'll be available for the start of spring training.

Unlikely to pitch this season
Manager Bob Melvin said Saturday that Pomeranz (elbow) is probably not going to pitch this season, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Pomeranz recently received positive news regarding his left elbow, but he isn't expected to have enough time to ramp back up prior to the end of the season. The southpaw had his rehab assignment shut down Aug. 19, and although he'll likely be sidelined for the remainder of 2022, it wouldn't be surprising to see him available for the start of spring training in 2023.

Pomeranz is working his way back from flexor tendon surgery in August. While it's a positive that he's been able to play catch in early spring, he's yet to throw off a mound. The lefty has closer upside once he's eventually healthy, as he owns a 1.62 ERA and a 33.7 percent strikeout rate over the last two innings, but injuries have unfortunately been the story throughout much of the veteran's career.
