Andrew McCutchen is dealing with minor elbow soreness and won’t be playing for a few days. We still have exactly two weeks until Opening Day, so if there’s no setbacks here, he should be ready to go with no issue.
Jarlin Garcia has a nerve injury in his left upper arm, and won’t be throwing for the next 4-5 weeks, before being reevaluated. So his possible return is still up in the air.
