Cade Cavalli reported to Nationals camp healthy and ready to participate.

Cavalli threw his first bullpen session on Monday as he is 11 months removed from Tommy John surgery. He is expected to throw off a mound three times a week until he’s cleared to face live hitters. He remains on track to return to the mound around June.

Cade Cavalli was diagnosed with a grade 3 sprain of his UCL. He will need Tommy John surgery and will miss the entire 2023 season.

Fantasy Impact

Cavalli left his last start after feeling discomfort in his elbow. This is tough news for the 24-year-old top prospect who likely would have had a shot at a rotation spot to start the season. He will be out for the entire 2023 season and will miss some time in 2024 as well.

Cade Cavalli was forced to leave Tuesday's start in the top of the third inning.

Fantasy Impact

Cavalli showed some discomfort after a pitch and was promptly removed from the game. More information about the injury should come soon, but this is obviously not good news. He would likely be a part of the Nationals' rotation to start the season if healthy, but we will have to see if that can come to fruition now.

Cade Cavalli has resumed throwing after being shut down due to shoulder discomfort in mid-September.

Fantasy Impact

Cavalli won't make another start for Washington this year, but it is positive news for 2023 that he is throwing and feels good. There has been no pain when throwing, according to Cavalli.
