Guardians' Shane Bieber: One more live BP likely

Bieber (elbow) will likely throw one more live batting practice session before resuming his rehab assignment, MLB.com reports.

Bieber had his rehab assignment paused a month ago over concerns about discomfort in his surgically repaired elbow, which was later deemed by doctors to be part of the normal healing process. The right-hander's played catch, thrown bullpen sessions and worked up to live BP since receiving the favorable news. Once the rehab stint resumes, a clearer return timeline should emerge for the 2020 AL Cy Young Award winner.
