The White Sox starting pitcher started the season on the IL after undergoing knee surgery.
“I think the big thing is going to be mound,” Lynn said. “When it comes to mound time, that’s going to tell us everything we need to know. Anything we do stress-wise on flat ground is not near what it is on a mound, so we’ll see when it comes to that time how it feels, and then after that it’s building that pitch count.”
The White Sox are without both Lynn and Lucas Giolito right now, so they’ve leaned on spot starter Vince Velasquez and the bullpen in the meantime. So far, all the pitchers picking up the slack have been up to the task. But the club certainly wouldn’t want to tax those arms too much, too early in the season.
Lynn said the team hasn’t held him back as he pushes forward in his rehab. They’re letting him dictate the pace, depending on how he feels. And if he feels alright, Lynn could be back in the rotation earlier than initially expected.
