Goss (shoulder) made his season debut Wednesday in Low-A Charleston's 3-1 loss to Columbia, pitching two innings and giving up a run on two hits and no walks while striking out two.
Goss was shut down for most of the 2021 season with a right shoulder impingement, though he was cleared to begin a rehab assignment in the rookie-level Florida Complex League over the final month of the campaign. The right-hander is expected to fill a starting role at Charleston this season, but expect his innings to be monitored carefully coming off the shoulder injury.

Rays' JJ Goss: Out with shoulder injury
Rotowire
Goss has missed the entire season due to a shoulder impingement, J.J. Cooper of Baseball America reports.
He is throwing bullpen sessions and hopes to get back on the mound prior to the end of the season. Fortunately, Goss doesn't turn 21 until December, so the missed time doesn't put him too far behind schedule. He has a high ceiling and was reportedly quite impressive during 2020 fall instructs, so he could be a bounce-back candidate in 2022.
