Detroit Tigers right-hander Julio Teheran (shoulder) has been long-tossing at the team's spring training complex, but he hasn't progressed to a full throwing program. Teheran made one start on April 3 before reporting shoulder issues and was diagnosed with a right shoulder strain.

Teheran is unlikely to return before August and will only be an option in much deeper leagues despite ...

He's pitched 11 innings and allowed six hits, one walk and three earned runs while striking out 15. He has a 2.45 ERA and 0.64 WHIP. It's unclear whether Teheran will start the year in the Tigers' starting rotation or if he will work in long relief. His strong spring makes the former option a bit more likely, but the Tigers have a number of starting pitchers competing for a spot...
