31 Danny Salazar SP

Salazar will be shut down for a few days with a shoulder setbacks, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.

Salazar has been throwing bullpens for over a month, but something did feel right after his most recent one. He visited with the doctor who performed his shoulder surgery last June and has been told to back off for now. He remains without a clear timeline to return to the field.

Salazar (shoulder) has been throwing two bullpens per week at extended spring training, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.

Salazar is working his way back from shoulder surgery that he underwent last June. While this is an encouraging step for the right-hander -- as he had previously been limited to long toss -- he remains without a concrete timetable for his return.

Salazar was placed on the 60-day injured list Sunday, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.

Salazar has yet to resume throwing off a mound after undergoing shoulder surgery last June, so this move shouldn't impact his recovery timeline. The 29-year-old is throwing from 180 feet as he continues his rehab, with mound work being the next step in his progression. There is no firm timetable for Salazar's return at this point.

Salazar (shoulder) is now throwing from 180 feet, Paul Hoynes of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Manager Terry Francona spoke about Salazar's progress Monday, stating, "In his last 10 days, two weeks, his progress has almost skyrocketed." The next step in Salazar's return will be to throw off the mound. While he is almost certainly destined for the injured list to begin the season, Salazar could be utilized out of the bullpen when he is ready to return after missing the entirety of the 2018 season.

Salazar (shoulder) played catch from 120 feet Tuesday, Paul Hoynes of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Salazar was throwing from 90 feet as of mid-to-late February, so the increased distance is a small sign that he's made progress in his recovery from right shoulder surgery. The Indians still haven't outlined a timeline for Salazar to throw off a mound, however, making him a candidate to open the season on the 60-day injured list.
