At least the Oakland A’s were able to get one appearance out of A.J. Puk this year. The oft-injured pitcher is once again on the Injured List, this time with a strained left bicep. In theory, this should not be a long term concern, but given Puk’s history, one never knows.

That includes the A’s at this point. They are uncertain as to how long he will remain on the shelf, as he has not resumed throwing yet.
