Joe Mantiply (shoulder) nearing return

Joe Mantiply is nearing his return from a shoulder injury.

Fantasy Impact

Mantiply will pitch in a rehab assignment Tuesday in Double-A Amarillo. He has been sidelined since the start of the season due to "shoulder fatigue." “The bullpens, the live BPs that he's thrown, everything's ticked up and he's feeling very, very good,” manager Torey Lovullo said. “Whether it was timing, whether it was just the dead arm, it was something that just wasn't right and I think the rest has done him well.” He should have a big role in the Diamondbacks bullpen when he is healthy.
