Mike Soroka pitched a live batting practice/simulated game Saturday as he continues his way back from a torn Achilles that ended his 2020 season after three starts.
“He’s doing good,” said manager Brian Snitker, who conducted his daily media conference earlier than usual Saturday morning so he could go watch Soroka. “Really good, actually. They’re still checking boxes with him.”
It’s still unclear whether Soroka will be ready for the start of the regular season. It does appear he’s on pace to make a start during spring training, whether that’s in an intrasquad affair or against another team.
