MINNEAPOLIS — Shoulder rehabilitation progress for Minnesota Twins left-hander Glen Perkins has been frustratingly slow.
The three-time All-Star closer has not pitched in 388 days and counting, carving a large chunk out of the late stage of his career.
“I feel like I’ve plateaued a lot here. I’m tired of being on a plateau,” Perkins said. “I want to improve. I don’t want to be plateaued anymore.”
Perkins was set to confer with team doctors to ensure his recovery program remains on the right track and see if there’s a way to give the rehab a jump start.
