Tampa Bay Rays prospect Brent Honeywell Jr. has been shut down from throwing again due to a potential nerve issue in his upper arm, according to Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times. The current plan for him is to rest and then go for testing next week. (Marc Topkin on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Honeywell had been shut down initially in mid-April due to elbow discomfort, so the fact that he is still having issues is concerning. Elbow and forearm injuries always carry with them the worry of Tommy John surgery, and Honeywell already has one of those surgeries under his belt from February of 2018. Look for an update on his status next week.
