Daily News | Bryce Harper reaches another milestone, moves closer to a potential Phillies return
. He isn’t expected to be cleared for throwing at full strength for another few weeks. And even once he is, he will go through a throwing progression, extending the distance gradually.‘I want to be smart about it’: As Bryce Harper begins sliding, he cautions against rushing his rehab
But it’s possible ElAttrache will sign off on Harper’s return to play as a DH. Headfirst sliding, and other unplanned actions within a game, are a bigger hurdle than hitting. If Harper returns too soon and bangs his elbow against a base or another player, it’s possible the reconstructed ligament could rupture.. “That’s a major thing. Sliding into a bag, if somebody hits me or tags me and I frickin’ sprain it and I’m out for the next four months, that does nothing for us.
But if ElAttrache gives the go-ahead to slide at full strength in early May, could Harper be in the lineup within a few days? “I think what the plan is really is that we cover everything that we need to cover prior to that [appointment],” Thomson said. “And then we talk to the doctor and figure out when it’s the best time to start DH’ing.”
The Phillies begin a brief five-game homestand May 5 against the Red Sox. They head back out on the road May 12 in Colorado. The Phillies open a 10-game intradivisional road trip May 25 in Atlanta, which will also mark the six-month mark from his surgery.
