Fukuhara's recovery is proceeding well. He is being treated with a sonic bone fusion machine which cuts recovery time for compound fractures by up to 38%. As a result he is ready to start simple throwing again.

Lin's return has been delayed. He is scheduled to start in a ni-gun game against Hiroshima on 2nd June.

Bummer about Lin. With the lack of production in right this year (despite Hiyama's surprising resurgence), hopefully he can be back there by the end of the year. With a couple of the pitchers in question as well (Sugiyama, Atchison), would be good to get Fukuhara back soon too.
