The Orioles won’t downplay the potential severity of tendinitis in Kevin Gausman’s right shoulder until he has an MRI on Tuesday, but the club and Gausman were encouraged today by the way the 24-year-old pitcher was feeling.
“I’ve gotten better every day and really it kinds of feels like nothing ever happened,” said Gausman, who was placed on the disabled list Friday. “The shoulder feels good. Obviously, I haven’t played catch yet so that’s something that will be a big sign when I finally do.”
Gausman was examined by team orthopedist Michael Jacobs late this afternoon and was scheduled for an MRI Tuesday morning.
