Right-hander Matt Bush rejoined the Texas Rangers’ bullpen Friday, but it might be a few days until he’s ready to pitch in a game.
Bush traveled to Arlington on Tuesday night for a cortisone injection into the sore AC joint in his shoulder. Those anti-inflammatory shots typically take a few days to take effect, and the Rangers want to see if Bush has any lingering soreness after throwing before sticking him in a game.
He played catch early Friday, stretching out to 90 feet, and will throw a touch-and-go bullpen session Saturday and possibly could be available later that night.
