Minnesota Twins Starter Pablo López Ends Bullpen Session Early over Elbow Soreness

  • On Monday, Minnesota Twins right-hander Pablo López ended a bullpen session early over elbow soreness during the team's first full-squad workout at their spring training complex in Southwest Florida.
  • In his third simulated inning, López walked off the Hammond Stadium mound after delivering a pitch, having thrown two-plus innings before stopping due to elbow soreness.
  • Across recent seasons, López was limited to 75 2/3 innings last year with three injured-list stints and had been the Twins' opening-day starter for three seasons, including as a 2023 All-Star.
  • The Twins decided to remove López `out of an abundance of caution` and will get imaging while moving cautiously with one of their top arms.
  • Because he advanced earlier to join Venezuela's WBC team, López's season prospects could be affected after elbow soreness puts his participation in jeopardy.
